April 30-May 10

More bold, brand-new or under-produced plays by Canadian playwrights, read for you LIVE by brilliant, bored actors all across the country looking for something fun to do!

The Play Thing was a top pick this week on the CBC website's ART UNCONTAINED - along with many other sources of streaming interest! 
 

Heads up:  on Saturday, May 9th at 2:00 pm (Pacific) the Playwrights Guild of Canada is generously supporting an author event on The Thing with readings and a conversation between two of our featured playwrights: Elyne Quan (Jane Eyre, May 3) and Meg Braem (Chysothemis, May 10). Details in next week's newsletter.

 

Click the titles below for more information about the event of your choice, or join the new  Canadian Play Thing Facebook page for ongoing updates.

If you'd like to get involved in the Play Thing behind the scenes - to help with admin, promotion, to submit a script, volunteer as an actor, or to offer other services, all the details can be found at plaything.ca.

As always, I welcome your feedback. And donations. I welcome donations. All donations go to my online operating expenses for The Thing, including the cost of this newsletter. Any support is appreciated.

HOW TO ATTEND

Our cozy Zoom venue seats 100 audience members. The doors open 5 minutes prior to showtime. Click the zoom link (below) to enter the venue. Make sure to visit the concession prior to or during the show, located in your kitchen. During the reading, your mic and camera will not be enabled, so crinkle your wrappers, leave your phone on and bring your cat. After the reading, you can "raise your hand" to join the cast and playwright on-screen for a post show reception.
