Spotlight on Plays

There’s an all-new spring lineup for the Spotlight on Plays reading series! This weekend only, you can catch Keanu Reeves (!!), Bobby Cannavale, Alia Shawkat, and Heidi Schreck (again, !!) in Larissa FastHorse’s THE THANKSGIVING PLAY. The wickedly funny play follows a group of “woke” teachers trying to create a pageant that celebrates both Thanksgiving and Native American heritage. Later plays in the season include Sarah Ruhl’s DEAR ELIZABETH, based on the compiled letters between poets Robert Lowell and Elizabeth Bishop; and Paula Vogel’s THE BALTIMORE WALTZ, a fantastical story about a brother and sister confronting the brother’s fatal disease.
