Member News and Upcoming Events - Late January, 2014


It’s “Off the cuff armchair theater” again!
Come along and try your hand at play reading! Wednesday, February 12, 2014 at 7 PM in the PAS Room, Princeton Center, 18 Boylston Ave, Princeton. This year we’ll be reading the work of contemporary award-winning playwright David Ives, whose work has been described as “at once enchanting and perplexing, incisively intelligent and side-splittingly funny”. Before his success on Broadway with “Venus in Fur” (currently playing in Boston), Ives wrote a number of short, playful, inventive one-act plays.
Join us as we read through three or four of these humorous plays from his popular book “All in the Timing”: ”Sure Thing”, “Words, Words, Words”, “Variations on the Death of Trotsky”, and “Mere Mortals”. Scripts will be available to share and minimal props will be provided.
Bring your voice and ideas for plays to read next year!  Refreshments!!! For more information, email contact@princetonarts.org.
