CIVIC Main Lobby

Directed by Charell Luckey

CIVIC is excited to announce a new play reading series we're calling "Scripts and Sips". These informal readings will take place in our Main Lobby in a cafe-style setting. We'll provide complimentary popcorn, and drinks will be available for purchase at concessions.

In this exuberant comedy and original revision of Shakespeare's Othello and Romeo and Juliet -- Constance Ledbelly, a drab and dusty academic, deciphers a cryptic manuscript she believes to be the original source for the tragedies, and is transported into the plays themselves. She visits Juliet and Desdemona, helps save them, and learns what these women are about. In true Shakespearean spirit, Constance plunders the plays and creates something new, all the while engaging in a personal voyage of self-discovery.
