Plays Out Loud: Picnic
Join us for the second in a series of four community readings of plays from American Players Theatre's 2025 season, Picnic by William Inge.
This play reading will take place on Sunday, April 13th, beginning at 2 PM at the Spring Green Community Center, 117 S Washington Street. Those who attend the reading are invited to choose a part to read out loud or just listen. Free scripts will be available at the door. Playbooks are available for sale at Arcadia Books or on loan from the Spring Green Community Library.
Synopsis from American Players Theatre's website: "It’s almost time for the annual Labor Day picnic in Independence, Kansas. But the town buzz is all about Hal – the young handyman hired by sweet Helen Potts. Her neighbor, Flo, is less than enthusiastic about having Hal in the vicinity of her daughters, Madge and Millie. When it turns out Madge’s steady guy, the steadfast Alan, is an old friend of Hal’s, Flo relents, and plans are made for Hal to stick around town more permanently. But young love may have other ideas, and hearts will be filled and broken in this play about desire, expectations and the sacrifices and settlements people make when it comes to love."
The series is free and open to all. Beverages and popcorn will be provided.
