Write Out Loud: The Bridge of San Luis Rey
4040 Twiggs Street, San Diego, 92110
Short stories are mini-dramas, made so by language alone. So, asked the founders of Write Out Loud, why not read them in public? That idea grew into a popular event. These aren't staged readings with little advance preparation. Local actors rehearse a story as they would a script. At the same time, all is subordinated to the word. As in the old days, regular attendees often close their eyes and listen. The group reads excerpts from Thornton Wilder's novel, in conjunction with Cygnet Theatre's staging of Our Town.<\p>
Worth a try.
