Join Gerber/Hart’s Play Reading Club on Saturday March 29th at 11 AM as they read along to Jen Silverman’s Collective Rage: A Play in Five Betties! We’ll divvy up the roles, read aloud, and have a short discussion after. Come to read or just to listen!
This event will be held in Gerber/Hart’s Community Room (6500 N Clark Street, 2nd floor). Elevator located at end of hallway (past Howard Brown front desk)
A few copies of the script will be available for use but please bring a phone, laptop, or other device to read the online pdf if you can!
For questions about this event, please contact info@gerberhart.org
About the Play
Betty is rich; Betty is lonely; Betty’s busy working on her truck; Betty wants to talk about love, but Betty needs to hit something. And Betty keeps using a small hand mirror to stare into parts of herself she’s never examined. Five different women named Betty collide at the intersection of anger, sex, and the “thea-tah.”
Content Warning
Collective Rage: A Play in 5 Betties contains strong language, sexual content, discussions of gender, identity, and class; and explicit reference to female sexuality. It uses irreverence, rage, and camp to reclaim desire, belonging, and bodies. It’s a comedy, some personal transformation included.
