  3. Petit Reads presents FAT HAM


Join Le Petit Theatre for a new series called Petit Reads. We'll present play readings throughout the year, some at the theatre and some at favorite venues around New Orleans.

Our premiere Petit Reads event will take place on Wednesday, November 29th at 7 PM at Central City BBQ with a reading of FAT HAM by James Ijames.

In this delectably comic, Pulitzer Prize-winning reinvention of Shakespeare's Hamlet, an uproarious family barbecue instigates a compelling examination of love and loss, pain and joy.

So come out and get some mouthwatering BBQ from Central City and enjoy a play reading. Tickets are free but are required so we have an idea of how many people are coming. Click the ticket link to reserve your seat.

Central City BBQ is located at 1201 S. Rampart Street, New Orleans, LA 70113
