NJ Theatre Alliance Stages Festival Presents Stream of BIRD IN A BOX  Image

New Jersey Theatre Alliance presents Hudson Theatre Works' PlayWorks readings of new plays.

The company will be releasing our YouTube video of "Bird In a Box," by Joanne Hoersch. This event is part of the Alliance's Stages Festival.

There is nothing more important to the long-term vitality of American theatre as an art form than the nurturing of new voices. PlayWorks is the first step in this process. PlayWorks presents readings of new plays by contemporary, often local playwrights, giving them an opportunity to share their work and include the audience in the creative process.

Due to the pandemic they are releasing this version on Wednesday, May 27th online on our Youtube channel, at: https://youtu.be/OyZXsYvCvAA. This link will become active on Wednesday, May 27th at 7:00PM. Donations will be going to the Weehawken Emergency Services Volunteers at: http://wvfas.org.

"Bird in a Box" by Joanne Hoersch. Two sisters, two very different memories of their shared childhood. With Joanne Hoersch, Gloria Lamoureux, directed by Frank Licato, produced by Adrian Wattenmaker with music by Donald Stark and Zachary Licato.
