Schedule for Readings of Plays by Naomi Wallace

The schedule for the free readings of three plays by Naomi Wallace is as follows (I've chosen plays that have specific connections to Kentucky, by the way ... )

Saturday, January 24 at 2:00 pm -- Slaughter City
Saturday, February 7 at 2:00 pm -- The Trestle at Pope Lick Creek
Saturday, February 14 at 2:00 pm -- In the Heart of America


All readings will take place in the Thrust Theatre at the University of Louisville, and are free of charge and open to the public. On Saturdays, free parking is available in the lot next door to the building. The Thrust Theatre is at the corner of Floyd and Warnock (across the street from the Natatorium and McDonalds, directly next door to Papa John's). Here's a map -

And here is a link where you can plug in your address and get information on TARC routes that stop near the building.

I realize that everyone is very busy and your time is valuable, so I appreciate any few minutes you have to give to this project. If you can't attend all three readings, please feel free to come to just one or two. And if you need to come and go as the reading is happening, that's fine too. One of the main goals, in addition to bringing to light the vital issues raised by these wonderful plays, is to build new communities by encouraging student artists and other members of the Louisville community to begin talking and listening to each other more directly. This is a new course and a new process here at UofL that I hope will be well received and will grow and change in future years, and any time you can spend helping us develop it is very much appreciated.
