The public is invited to participate in the Blue Hill Public Library Play Reading Group on Wednesday, September 26th at 6:30 PM, a week later than the usual 3rd Wednesday of the month. Each month, the group reads a new play, with selections across a large variety of genres, time periods, and styles.
September’s play will be A Flea in Her Ear by Georges Feydeau, written in 1907. This farcical French play is set at the turn of the 20th Century, and follows Raymonde Chandebise, who suspects that her husband, Victor Emmanuel Chandebise, is having an affair. She and her best friend devise a plan to test him, and many miscommunications and hijinks ensue.
The group welcomes inexperienced and experienced readers alike. The only criteria are the love of plays and the joy of reading them aloud among like-minded theater fans. Attendees are also welcome to just come and listen if they prefer not to read. For further information, contact the library at 374-5515 or Michael Donahue at 374-5248, or Donahue.mg@gmail.com.
