Play Reading

The Play Reading Section, an informal study group, in association with the UCLA Emeriti Association, meets at the UCLA Faculty Center to explore classical and contemporary plays for the theater. Individuals from the group are cast to read aloud with script in hand one or more parts from the selected plays. Others may enjoy the Play Reading Section as members of the audience. Afterward the cast and audience discuss the play and playwright as time permits. Guests are welcome. Rehearsal is generally one week before the scheduled meeting.

If you would like to participate, let the Play Reading Section know by sending an e-mail to uclafwc@ucla.edu with Play Reading as the subject.


Plays subject to change.

Unless otherwise indicated play readings are at the UCLA Faculty Center, 7 P.M.
