An additional reading of Burglars of Hamm's new comedy, "The Behavior of Broadus" has been announced for Sunday, September 18 at 7 p.m. at the Center Theatre Group/Kirk Douglas Theatre as part of DouglasPlus Programming. The staged reading is in addition to the previously announced reading for Saturday, September 17 at 8 p.m.

Casting has also been set for the play by Burglars of Hamm (Carolyn Almos, Matt Almos, Jon Beauregard and Albert Dayan), which features original songs by Matt Almos and Brendan Milburn with Burglars of Hamm, and lyrics by Matt Almos and Burglars of Hamm.

Complete with lab rats, romance and music, "The Behavior of Broadus," tells the incredible, sort-of-true story of John Broadus Watson, the father of both behaviorism and modern advertising.
