May 27: Pulp by Joseph Zettelmaier

Set in Los Angeles, 1933, PI Frank Ellery doesn't know it, but he's taken on the strangest case of his life. A literary agent has been gruesomely murdered. The 4 suspects: his remaining clients, all writers for different pulp magazines. Frank dives into the mystery, and his world turns upside down as life begins to imitate literature. Science fiction, romance, adventure, horror...and one down­on­his­luck gumshoe who's about to learn what really lurks between the lines.

Upcoming Open Table readings include a to­be­determined reading in consideration for the Network's Northern Writers' Project (September 2015) on June 17 and a reading of Richard Strand's T?he Butler o?n June 24.

The Open Table Series offers table readings of plays and musicals, both classic and new, in an intimate setting.
