Play Reading For Play Lovers – Ibsen and Adaptations

Do you love language and theatre? Have you ever found it challenging to read rather than see a play? Do you love reading plays but wish it were a more social activity?

Join Artistic Director Marti Lyons and your classmates in an intimate and animated “book club” conversation discussing the writing, contexts, techniques, and theatrical ideas of 10 plays and their playwrights over the first half of our season. Discover the joys of studying plays and theatrical writing in all sorts of new ways!

This session we will be focusing on the plays of Henrik Ibsen and their adaptations! See the full list of plays below.

Take the full session for $200, or drop in to any session for only $49!

This class will take place online via Zoom – participants must be able to attend the class in real time, as it will not be recorded.

DATES: August 11, September 8, October 6, November 3, December 8

TIME: 2 hours, 6:00-8:00pm 

COST: $200 for the full session, $49 per drop-in class
