Malloree Hill, Gabriella Garcia, Aurora Heimbach, and Molly Wheaton will lead an industry reading of Samuel by Alexis Roblan, directed by Madeline O'Hara, on Sunday, May 27, at 3p at Manhattan Theatre Club Studios (311 W 43rd St, 8th floor, Studio B). Jillian Lebling, Patrick Merveille, and Lynita Spivey complete the cast.
This is the second presentation of Front Porch Readings, a quarterly series whose mission is to celebrate diverse stories and worldviews through the playwright/director relationship, open auditions, and a direct connection to publishers and producers. FPR is co-produced by Ryan McCurdy and Emily Mwakitawa with Artistic Director Zhailon Levingston.
Samuel is a wickedly clever new play about the shifting nature of sisterhood, family and reality. Absurdity and traditionalism share equal footing with weddings and funerals as four sisters navigate language, memory, and alternate timelines. Admission is strictly limited; request 1 or 2 complimentary seats by E-mailing frontporchreadings@gmail.com. Please include any union or professional affiliations.
