Our 2024 Script in Hand season continues with a new play- A DANGER TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS

The week before Thanksgiving, Eddie, anxious and in debt, tries to rob a gas station. Instead, he falls for the station clerk, bungles a burglary, gets caught with a weapon, evades hospitalization, flees from the police, and has his library card revoked—but hey, at least he meets the woman of his dreams!

A Danger to Yourself and Others is a farcical look at what it’s like navigating life with anxiety, never knowing if the gnawing feeling in your gut is a dose of good, old-fashioned intuition… or irrational fear.

MEET THE CAST

Colette Mazunik’s A DANGER TO YOURSELF AND OTHERS is a fast-paced, wry, and wonderfully witty tale of romance, trust, mental health, deception... and identity theft! Mazunik leads us through a labyrinthine maze of wild secrets and unexpected plot twists, all while keeping the story rich with heart and humor. It’s always a joy when we can feature a vibrant new work in our Script in Hand series, and under Brendon Fox's expert direction and featuring an extraordinary cast, this promises to be a memorable night at the Playhouse as we help launch this exciting new play."

ABOUT SCRIPT IN HAND PLAYREADINGS

Every Script in Hand playreading is a brand new experience.

At a Script in Hand playreading, there’s nothing between you and the actors on stage. These readings bring actors who’ve just met — or who’ve known each other for years — together for one day to rehearse and perform a play on a bare stage, with simple lighting — and you. The audience is in charge of conjuring the set, costumes, and atmosphere — or nothing at all. Actors, audience, and the director come together to create a special, one-night-only experience.
