Readers theatre at The Driftwood Players Sunday - free admission to be part of the process

On Sunday, February 23, 2014, at 7pm, The Driftwood Players will let you in on the process of creating a play with their First Draft readers' presentation of a new play.

Actors dramatize the work "readers-theatre" style, giving the author a glimpse of what works and what doesn't. After the reading, a moderated Q/A session with the dramatist and audience continues to explore the work.

In the debt-ravaged belly of Minneapolis, a group wins the state lottery only to have their winning ticket destroyed. Lottery Play examines our obsession with overnight enrichment, and imagines the emotional fallout when riches are stripped not just from our dreams...but from our very hands. 
Bob Sherman and his nephew Nathan are co-owners in a family carpet cleaning business that is losing customers and hope by the minute. After their winning lottery ticket is destroyed, spurring the feelings of deceit and desperation, Bob and Nathan must reconcile as to whether winning it all truly is the American Dream. 
And what happens next is anyone's luck.
  
Sunday, February 23 at 7pm - Free Admission - at the Wade James Theatre, 950 Main Street, Edmonds 98020 (map)
