Spotlighters Theatre to Host Workshop Reading of IN A YELLOW WOOD as Part of Baltimore Playwrights Festival, 2/23

As part of the Play Development Workshops of the Baltimore Playwrights Festival, Spotlighters Theatre will hold a workshop reading of In A Yellow Wood, by Garry Kluger. The reading will take place on Sunday, February 23 at 6:00 p.m. The theater is located at 817 Saint Paul Street, Baltimore, MD 21202. No tickets required. Donations accepted at the Door to help cover the costs to the theatre.

This play will be given a full production at Spotlighters in August of 2014.

The play focuses on Jeremy Levin who loved three things the most in the world: writing children's books, his English country home, and his wife Kate. Not necessarily in that order. When Kate suddenly dies in a traffic accident, Jeremy's life falls to pieces. Brought back to his home in Baltimore by his best friend Stacey, Jeremy is encouraged to seek help in dealing with his wife's death, something he hasn't been able to do in the year since she died. As Jeremy enters therapy not only does he start to deal with Kate's death, he also winds up learning more about his relationships with those he's been the closest to his whole life-his mother, his sister, and his best friend.
