According to Wikipedia, “Readers Theatre is a style of theatre in which the actors present dramatic readings of narrative material without costumes, props, scenery, or special lighting. Actors use only scripts and vocal expression to help the audience understand the story.”
Langham Court’s Readers’ Theatre presents plays in non-staged and semi-staged versions. Usually the actors are seated, facing the audience, with scripts in hand or scripts on stands placed in front.
We provide theatre-lovers of all experience levels opportunities to try something new — a new role, or a new acting, directing, or play-writing opportunity. We welcome plays of all types, but generally recommend plays of one hour in length or less.
If you have a play idea you would like to see produced by Langham’s Readers’ Theatre, or if you’d simply like to be involved in some way, please contact us at gm@langhamtheatre.ca
