Join us for The Nora Salon: “The Unthinkable” on 6/11

Posted by Rebecca Lovett in Announcements, Nora Salon, Upcoming events

Our next gathering of The Nora Salon is Monday, June 11! We hope you’ll join us for a glass of wine, friendly conversation, and an informal reading of Eve Lederman’s full length play: The Unthinkable.

The Unthinkable

The Unthinkable depicts one afternoon in a hospital room in a death-defying traumedy revealing family secrets. Backs are turned and accusations hurled as the Rosens come together and fall apart, bound by heartbreak and humor.

whatdoesfreemean?, a new play by award-winning human rights playwright Catherine Filloux, follows the journey of an African-American woman serving a long sentence for a non-violent drug offense. When Mary ends up in solitary confinement, she struggles to maintain her sanity. The play takes the audience into her psychic world. We travel alongside her self-guided intellectual and emotional journey into the nature of freedom, both physical and psychological, as Mary’s external and internal experiences unfold on stage in the present, in memory, and in the fantasies that help her survive. Directed by Amy S. Green, the cast includes James Edward Becton*, Brenda Crawley, Justin Jorrell, Galway McCullough*, Liz Morgan*, and Lisa Strum* as Mary.

whatdoesfreemean? was developed with the support of Nora’s Playhouse.

The Nora’s Playhouse production of whatdoesfreemean? is presented by The Tank.

This production is an Equity-approved showcase. *Actors appearing courtesy of Actors’ Equity Association

The Nora Tasting Salon: all of the littlest things is May 18th!

Posted by Emily in Announcements, Nora Salon, Upcoming events

Co-hosted by Simple Brewing Company and Nora’s Playhouse, the next gathering of The Nora Salon is Friday, May 18, and features a beer tasting.

Join us as we drink beer, engage in friendly conversation, give insightful feedback, and enjoy an informal reading of Lauren D’Errico’s one-act play:

all of the littlest things.

June had a strange relationship with a high school teacher that she doesn’t quite understand — and even years later, the cubicle of her mind dedicated to figuring that experience out is cluttered with the paperwork. Surrounded by these pages, manifestations of June from Then and Now work to make order amidst the endless piles of thoughts, confusion, and grief.
