A reading of a two act play, Our Song, 6:00 – 8:00 p.m. at Art Society of Kingston (97 Broadway, Kingston, NY) on Thursday, May 14th and Thursday, May 28th. 

We will try and get through Act I on May 14th and Act II on May 28th. If we don’t have readers for each part, we can double characters. 

If interested person could respond to my email: [email protected]. And please respond with which character you would like to read for. A reading wouldn't mean you would receive the part (unless you do fit the part). Or if you know of someone who would like to do the reading, please email as well. 

Thank you!

Robin Rockey Hutchinson
