More About Arc Stages Queer Play Reading Circle, June 13
Join us Saturday, June 13th at 11am for our Cold Reads & Coffee Queer Play Reading Circle! We'll be reading Fat Ham by James Ijames.
About the play:
Juicy is a queer, Southern college kid, already grappling with some serious questions of identity, when the ghost of his father shows up in their backyard, demanding that Juicy avenge his murder. From an uproarious family barbecue emerges a compelling examination of love and loss, pain and joy. Winner of the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, this Hamlet adaptation is a delectable comic tragedy.
Feel free to read a role or simply listen. Scripts and snacks will be provided. Allies are welcome and encouraged to join!
This event is free of charge and for Ages 18+. Fat Ham contains mature language and content. Contact info@arcstages.org if you have any questions.
We look forward to seeing you there!
Please note: Roles will not be precast. This is a casual gathering and we will distribute reading assignments, scene by scene, in the moment.
