SUMMARY:Love\, Loss & What I Wore
DESCRIPTION:The Page-to-Stage reader’s theater series begins with “Love\, Loss and What I Wore\,” written by Nora and Delilah Ephron and directed by Julie Walkins. This funny\, yet touching and compelling script is an intimate collection of stories about women\, clothes and memories covering all the important subjects—mothers\, prom dresses\, mothers\, buying bras\, mothers\, hating purses\, and why we only wear black. It is a perfect match for Mother’s Day weekend. \nReader’s theater is a unique experience for audiences. In a typical theater experience\, the audience is invited into the scene; but during a reader’s theater production the audience is invited into the story. Stripping a script to its barest bones–the dialogue–really pushes both actors and directors to focus their energy on developing rich characters that keep the plot moving forward without reliance on props and sets. This undertaking emphasizes the power of the words. \nEach show will be followed by a meet and greet with the cast\, providing the audience with a unique opportunity to socialize with the performers and crew. Coffee and cookies will be provided. \n“Page to Stage: A Readers Theater Experience” will run at the Matthews Opera House and Arts Center every weekend in May with performances on Saturday evenings at 7:30 pm and Sunday matinees at 2 pm. Admission is $5 at the door.

SUMMARY:The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds
DESCRIPTION:The Page-to-Stage reader’s theater series continues with “The Effect of Gamma Rays on Man-in-the-Moon Marigolds\,” written by Paul Zindel and directed by Joanna Mechaley.

SUMMARY:A Gap in Generations
DESCRIPTION:Once again proving that laughter is the best medicine\, Max Merchen will direct “A Gap in Generations\,” by Jerry Blunt\, continuing the Page-to-Stage series. This comedic-farce explodes with belly-laughs as the readers discover a square in old Bologna peopled by types that could have strayed from any of Shakespeare’s classic tales. \nReader’s theater is a unique experience for audiences.
