This month we continue with our series of online play readings with 'Paris' by Eboni Booth.
Everyone is welcome, there is no need to have lots of acting experience or buy the play in advance. You will need a laptop or tablet to read the play on the screen. The group simply read the play and have a brief discussion afterwards. Previously the online play reading group has led to productions being included in the Criterion season with shows like The Gift, The Welkin and 1984.
Set in Vermont in the 1990s. Paris is a play about Emmie, one of the only Black people living in the town of Paris and she desperately needs a job. When she is hired at Berry’s, a store off the interstate selling everything from baby carrots to lawnmowers, she begins to understand a new kind of isolation. Paris is a play about invisibility, being underpaid, and how it feels to work on your feet for ten hours a day.
