Free Play Reading – Saturday, May 15th at 11:30 AM at Elmwood Playhouse

Elmwood Playhouse will present Evening at the Talk House by Wallace Shawn as part of its Cold Reading Series, Saturday, May 15th at 11:30 AM on the Elmwood Patio in front of the theatre.

Evening at the Talk House is about an intimate group of writers and actors who reunite to celebrate a collaboration from their past. But the world is now very different and more quietly dangerous. And so are they. As drinks and hors d’oeuvres are consumed, small talk evolves into more sinister topics. “Evening at the Talk House” is a stark reminder that all it takes is complacency to enable the dirty work of an authoritarian regime.
