Off the Press Series

Presented for adults and older teens at the Elgood Theater, these informal staged readings include some of the latest plays from Broadway, Off-Broadway and the American Regional Theatre. These thought-provoking, gutsy plays are by some of theatre's newest playwrights - plays just "off the press." Each admission includes the staged reading, a talk-back with artists and light refreshments.
