Austin Playhouse Announces Livestream Reading of ROARING by Cyndi Williams
Roaring asks the audience to look at what they would do if isolated from the outside world and forced to encounter the ghosts of their past.
Austin Playhouse has announced a livestream reading of Roaring from Austin award-winning playwright Cyndi Williams featuring cast members Babs George, Claire Grosso, Huck Huckaby, Molly Karrasch, and Steven Mercantel reuniting from the 2014 production.
Roaring asks the audience to look at what they would do if isolated from the outside world and forced to encounter the ghosts of their past. Looking forward to emerging from this great pause, Austin Playhouse felt now is the perfect time to revisit this moving play. This event will stream live at 7:30 p.m. on March 6 with a live Q&A immediately following.
Austin Playhouse also previously produced Ms. Williams' play, Dug Up, which won the Austin Critics' Table David Mark Cohen New Play Award. Cyndi Williams' other works include American Arcana, A Name for a Ghost to Mutter (Harvest Festival of New American Plays, Larry L. King Award), and Where Are They Now?
