PlayLabs reading: THE HIDDEN PEOPLE by Joe Waechter at Playwrights' Center

Join the Playwrights' Center for a free staged reading, part of the 32nd annual PlayLabs new play festival.

THE HIDDEN PEOPLE by Joe Waechter
Wednesday, October 14 at 7 p.m. and Saturday, October 17 at 7 p.m.
Life isn’t easy for the world’s first family and their 47 children. When eldest twins Fred and Frieda run away in search of “a more super awesome life,” all hell breaks loose. In this dark, hysterical, and magical saga, Waechter mashes-up creation myths to forge a new story about family, the origin of the world, and the darkness that lurks within us all.
