Reader’s Theatre table read of ELEPHANT by Lewis Morrow – Sunday, March 24

Winner of WCT’s Reader’s Theatre Contest will be a read only event at 2-4pm, with a TalkBack with the author.

Lewis conceived ELEPHANT, a story based on a real-life incident of a black man being approached by his white female boss with an offensive request – to wear a chicken suit as part of a presentation to impress the company’s CEO. The play dives into a discussion about racism in the workplace and uplifts the perspective of Black and Latin individuals, showcasing how microaggressions can fester and explode, and how people of color resist and persist against those tensions. For Mature Adults. Reservations are not needed for this FREE event. Stay for the TalkBack with Lewis Morrow.
Cast: 
Marcus/Pop – Tom Hanks , Rae – Arietta Austin, Mayra – Esme Carlos, Clarissa/Mom – Misty Maynard, Paulie – Jered Becker, John Clark – Paul Savage

Set in the early days of the Depression in a small southern Indiana town named Zion, Buddy Layman is a mentally-challenged boy whose sweet nature touches most people he meets. One day a stranger and retired preacher, C.C. Showers, passes through Zion looking for work and food. C.C. takes an immediate liking to Buddy and vice versa. C.C. is able to relate to Buddy in ways that most people aren’t. The two become close friends and C.C. soon finds himself as Buddy’s mentor and teacher.

Robert returns to Dublin to reunite with Cait, the woman who captured his heart during a James Joyce literary tour thirty-five years ago. Dancing backwards through time, the older couple retrace their steps to discover their younger selves. Through young Robbie and Caithleen, they relive the unlikely, inevitable events that brought them—only briefly—together.

During the war Joe Keller and Steve Deever ran a machine shop which made airplane parts. Deever was sent to prison because the firm turned out defective parts, causing the deaths of many men. Keller went free and made a lot of money. The twin shadows of this catastrophe and the fact that the young Keller son was reported missing during the war dominate the action. The love affair of Chris Keller and Ann Deever, the bitterness of George Deever returned from the war to find his father in prison and his father’s partner free, are all set in a structure of almost unbearable power. The climax showing the reaction of a son to his guilty father is fitting conclusion to a play electrifying in its intensity.

A tremendously impressive drama that received the New York Drama Critics Circle Award for Best Play.
