Fall is in the air, and it’s time for a new season of scripts and authors presented by the Shoreline-Lake Forest Park Arts Council’s Reader’s Theater series. The season opens Monday, Oct. 26 with “Between You and Me,” a collection of monologues and scenes by Edmonds playwright Stefani Priest.
Priest’s scripts shows remarkable insight into human behavior, and outstanding grasp of both humor and drama. Subjects of the short pieces and scenes include a child who has been sent to summer camp and knows she has been sent to get her out of her mother’s way, a typical beauty shop conversation where the client does all the talking, a shop-lifter’s confession, an older man who is beginning to feel his age, two people at dinner who spend all of their time on cell-phones, a women’s dinner party where gossip is the conversation coin, and a mother and her daughter who are at odds about almost everything.
Readers’ Theater productions are presented by the group of readers who selected to work with the new plays program. Readings will be followed by cookies, coffee, and discussion with the cast, playwright and audience.
