"I just love y'all. It is a masterclass. It is perfect for getting to know new Writers."
"I'm an avid theater attendee and see almost every show here in Portland. There is nothing to compare with the Play Reading Club. It stands alone, as the experience of hearing unknown plays read by not only actors but also by regular untrained fellow audience members is such a lovely treat. We all love to hear new stories told to us in such a pure form. It delights the child in all of us!"

April 9th - May 21st 2025
Our beloved Playreading Club returns in April.
Join us for a random assortment of plays that we're eager to read!
Here's the drill!
Each week participants will read through a different play and have a discussion afterwards.
For each play, the roles will be placed on slips of paper in a hat, and upon arrival, participants will each pick a slip of paper, and will either read a part or be an audience member.
Workshops will be held in StT’s office/rehearsal space (2136 SE 8th Ave).
We are changing the time from 6:30-9:30 to give people ample time to navigate the traffic.
List of plays
May 7th- Rhinoceros by Eugene Ionesco
May 14th- The Trial by Franz Kafka, adapted by Steven Berkoff
May 21st- The Visit by Friedrich Dürrenmatt
