Reading of Wendy Wasserstein's THIRD Slated for Bon Ton Room

A theatrical reading of 'Third' by Wendy Wasserstein will be held on June 4th & 5th 2010 at the Bon Ton Room. The reading is directed by Dr. Ann Green.

"His name is Woodson Bull III, but you can call him "Third." And Professor Laurie Jameson is disinclined to like his jockish, jingoistic attitude. He is, as she puts it, "a walking red state." Believing that Third's sophisticated essay on King Lear could not possibly have been written by such a specimen, Professor Jameson reports his plagiarism to the college's Committee of Academic Standards. But is Jameson's accusation justified? Or is she casting Third as the villain in her own struggle with her relationships, her age and the increasingly polarized political environment?"

All readings are FREE and will take place at The Bon Ton Room, 3017 Wildwood in Jackson. Reservations are not necessary but may be made by calling 517-787-6733. Doors open at 6:00pm for dinner, dessert and drinks. Readings begin at 8:00pm followed by an open discussion led by Dr. Ann Green.
