About us
Welcome former theatre kids!
Let's read plays aloud on Zoom together (scripts will be displayed so you can read along). New play ideas are always welcome - just no musicals, as not all of us can sing!
Character sign-ups are first come, first serve. Choose your favorite - age, gender, etc. do not matter!
And if you want to dive deeply into the character, costumes and makeup are more than welcome!
