Reading Plays

Gareth Stack

19 Episodes

Reading plays is like a book group, but for plays. Each episode features an in depth discussion of a new or classic modern play.

Each week we do a close reading of a play, discussing it’s merits, themes, issues raised, and so on. You can play along by reading or watching a production of the play before you listen to the show.

Join Gareth Stack & James Van De Waal for a light hearted but in depth discussion of theatre, from classic French farce, to post modern drama.
