Chicago Cold Reads [Virtual]

Seeking anyone interested in getting together with friends (new and old) over Zoom to sit down and read a play! YES, the WHOLE play.

Out loud, without rehearsal (i.e., cold) for no one but ourselves, for fun and humankind! ;)

More can be found on this idea here: https://coldreads.wordpress.com/

"We assume parts regardless of age/gender/type, and double up, and swap around so everyone reads major roles. Now and then we stop to “ad lib” (recap, question, clarify, opine, debate, share insights, wisecrack), until somebody says 'Shut up and deal.' " (from the Cold Reads website (see above link))

We will select the next play reading from a list submitted by members (so start thinking of plays you would like to read).

Roles are assigned at each reading. No acting experience necessary - we're not performing and there is no audience (although, if you have acting experience or a flair for the dramatic, you will not be discouraged from showing it).

*You are welcome to just come and listen, too -- you don't have to read, although reading is part of the fun.*

We usually meet on the final Sunday of each month (although sometimes this varies, so please check the events page) over Zoom.

**Members must be at least 18 years old. I appreciate your understanding and support!**
