By Amy Herzog

After suffering a major loss while he was on a cross-country bike trip, 21 year-old Leo seeks solace from his feisty 91 year-old grandmother Vera in her West Village apartment.

THEATER BY THE BOOK is our series of informal play readings co-presented with the Miners Foundry.
Now in our 11th Season, we schedule five or six readings throughout the year and present a wide range of works. The director and actors come together and rehearse for a short time; there is no scenery, no costumes, and minimal staging. Check us out and expand your theatrical horizons!
