Play Readers of Denton will meet Tuesday, July 27, at 7 pm upstairs at the Campus Theatre to read a play out loud. Last week a group of us read most of Claud Singer's new play, Merisi, and then discussed it.

Belated congratulations to Mark Jadrych, who will be playing Dr. Chasuble in The Importance of Being Earnest for DCT in September--he was inadvertantly left off the list of Play Readers cast in the show last week. And congratulations also to Play Readers Wes Porter and Helen Exel, who were cast in the melodrama coming up in Pilot Point. Break a leg, everyone!

The Producers opens August 6 and runs until August 22. More info at http://www.dentoncommunitytheatre.com/events_shows.php
