Good for the goose and good for the gander…
In Westport CT, the well-respected Westport Country Playhouse and the Westport Public Library have joined together in a program entitled PlayClub; an opportunity for the community to read and discuss several of the plays prior to their being staged at the Playhouse during the 2008 season.
“We’re lifting the curtain so our audience can peek at what’s behind it to become more engaged in our productions and discover the magic that creates ‘theatre,’” said Jodi Schoenbrun Carter, managing director, Westport Country Playhouse. Actress Joanne Woodward is one of the theater’s co-artistic directors.
Joan Hume, community relations director of Westport Public Library, stated, “The plays on the shelves of the Westport Public Library have long inspired Playhouse directors’ decisions on past performances. It’s a natural progression to join the two resources.”
