Patchwork Play Project to Stage Free Reading at Omaha Community Playhouse

A special event called the Patchwork Play Project will be held at the Omaha Community Playhouse as part of the Alternative Programming series Monday, March 21, 2016 at 7:30 p.m. in OCP's Hawks Mainstage Theatre. The showing is free and open to the public with the opportunity for donation. No tickets or reservations are necessary.

A completely original piece of theatre with a twist! Omaha is home to many talented playwrights, both well-established and up-and-coming. A group of local talent has teamed up to write an original play - one piece at a time. One individual started writing the piece in the summer of 2015. It was then handed off to another writer to continue the story and it continued to be handed off over the course of the year. Where the story goes...nobody knows! Come watch a staged reading of the final project to find out what the creative minds of Omaha can concoct.

Playwrights: Ben Adams (theatre student at Burke High School), Students at Beveridge Middle School: Laura Campbell, Jeff Horger, Moira Mangiameli, Kaitlyn McClincy, Marie Amthor Schuett, and Ellen Struve.
