CAPE MAY – Cape May Stage’s successful Monday night reading series continues throughout October to bring different and thought-provoking works that stimulate, provoke and challenge audiences.
On Monday nights this fall Cape May Stage continues to host two different series of staged readings. The first, Danger: Stay Away! is a continuation of last year’s successful series of the same name and tackles provocative and risqu works. The second, Masters of Modern Drama seeks to bring contemporary classics by prolific playwrights to the stage.
“We are thrilled at the response we’ve gotten to these series so far,” says Producing Artistic Director Roy Steinberg. “Audiences really engage with the work and have wonderful feedback during our post-reading discussions. It is just a wonderful way to introduce people to works beyond our main stage.”
Danger: Stay Away! and Masters of Modern Drama take place on Mondays at 7:00 p.m. at the Robert Shackleton Playhouse located on the corner of Bank and Lafayette Streets in downtown Cape May. Tickets are ‘pay what you wish’ – you decide how much theatre is worth to you. No advance reservations are possible and tickets are cash only.
