Play Reading 101

Sex, drugs and violence. Adult themes, frequent coarse language, great writing and great comedy… Welcome to Play Reading 101. Plays are meant to be performed, right? You can’t just read them on your own, right? Right.

Courthouse ARTS is proud to present the first season of Play Reading 101, an open age group dedicated to bringing the written word to life.

This first season of work is a cutting edge collection of emerging Australian voices and you are invited to participate in readings of these plays. You may be an actor who wants to read. You may be a writer who wants to listen. Or you may be just be somebody who wants to stretch your imagination beyond the Broadway musical. If you are one of these people, then Play Reading 101 is the place for you. We want you to come and be part of this new gang of theatre adventurers.

If you feel like having a read – terrific. We suggest you come along to one of the play readings, meet us all and register your interest in the process.

The majority of these plays contain strong language, adult themes, some violence, some sex scenes and sexual references and are recommended for people over the age of eighteen. If that doesn’t get you interested, we don’t know what will.

Readings will be held on the third Tuesday of every month at 7.30pm.
