WHEN: April 24th, 2025 7pm-10pm (venue opens at 5pm with non-alcoholic drinks and snacks available)
WHERE: Nutmeg Non-Alcoholic Bar and Market (1835 E Passyunk Ave, Philadelphia, PA 19148)*
*Please note that our space for the event is only accessible via one flight of stairs.
WHAT: We will be reading the first draft of THE ALCHEMIST’S COMEDY…OR TRAGEDY by Evelyn Richardson, a new play in verse with two endings that will be voted on by the audience, leading the story to a comic or tragic conclusion based on the outcome of one character’s fateful choice.
This will be a reading in Open Theater Workshop style, meaning that anyone who attends can volunteer to read. We will change casts throughout the reading if there are more participants than characters. We will explore physical staging and design ideas even in this mostly cold reading, and we will pause to respond at intermission and after the play. You are welcome to bring art supplies and musical instruments as you like.
The non-alcoholic bar will be open before and during our event. Our space for the event is only accessible via a flight of stairs. The reading is free to attend and participate in.
A $10 donation will help us cover our space rental if you’re able to contribute.
