Puck is Dead by Kate Leslie (Festival Reading #3)

Directed by Michael Mansfield

Where is Puck? After the unexplained disappearance of Puck, Titania and Oberon decide to leave the woods and move to the suburbs. But life in the suburbs isnt as simple as it seems. Helena has started to doubt her relationship with Demetrius, and Bottom drowns his sorrows at a local pub. Oberon tries to hold onto his relationship by seeing a couples therapist. When the magic is gone, is the only thing left the mundane?

About the Festival:
Each summer at the end of July, we present a three-day event showcasing readings of student work from the Playwrights Lab. These readings are minimally staged for the general public and close to a dozen theatre professionals as respondents from as far away as Los Angeles and from as close as right here in Roanoke.

These readings are presented free to the public, but there is limited seating. Many of our festival readings have gone on to be published, produced and won major awards. Come see tomorrow's stars today!

Our festival is presented in collaboration with Mill Mountain Theatre on their Waldron Stage.
