The public is invited to participate in the Blue Hill Public Library Play Reading Group on Wednesday, June 20th from 6:30 to 9:00 PM at the library, the last reading until fall. June’s play will be Philadelphia, Here I Come! (1964) by Brian Friel. In the play, a young Irishman is about to immigrate to America. The play takes place entirely in the hours before he is set to leave Ireland, as he reflects on his relationships with family and friends, vacillating between the comic and the tragic.
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. For further information, contact the library at 374-5515 or Michael Donahue at 374-5248, or Donahue.mg@gmail.com.
