Write Out Loud to Conclude 10th Anniversary Season with Reading of THE OPEN ROAD
Write Out Loud - an organization founded in 2007 with a commitment to inspire, challenge and entertain by reading short stories aloud for a live audience - announces THE OPEN ROAD, the final production in their 10th Anniversary Season, on Monday, June 5th at 7 p.m. at Old Town Theatre (4040 Twiggs Street, San Diego).
Write Out Loud Story Concerts bring literature to life - aloud - with rehearsed readings by professional actors. Each program explores specific themes by weaving a variety of stories, poems and music together into a literary tapestry.
Performers will include Allison Spratt Pearce, Frances Gercke, Walter Ritter and Veronica Murphy. A pre-show reception starts at 6:15pm with a 7:00pm curtain.
Write Out Loud Artistic Director, Veronica Murphy said "there are so many lesser known and intriguing stories and poems about life on the road and the examination of travel and where it leads us. We excited to share some of these gems with the community at the final performance of our 10th Anniversary Season."

FRUIT AND WORDS by Aimee Bender (UCSD graduate) - read by Allison Spratt Pearce
