Ars Nova presents, as part of the Out Loud series, a FREE reading of: REVERBERATION by Matthew Lopez, directed by Keith Nobbs. The cast includes Chris Abbott, Aya Cash and Michael Esper.

REVERBERATION
After a personal tragedy, Jonathan has withdrawn from the world, seeking solace in his memories and in the anonymity of online connections. Claire, his upstairs neighbor, has countless acquaintances but no real friends. Over the course of one autumn, Jonathan and Claire form a bond born of mutual loneliness, but the past reverberates into the present, threatening to destroy their fragile happiness.

Matthew Lopez's The Whipping Man will receive its West Coast Premiere at The Old Globe in San Diego in May, directed by Giovanna Sardelli, followed by a production at Barrington Stage in June.
