Fun and informal: You can sit and listen or participate as much as you want

This is two-part table read. We will read Henrik Ibsen's 1879 A Doll's House as well as the Tony-winning 2023 adaptation by Amy Herzog.

Participants can attend both or either read.

About the Work

Ibsen’s celebrated play thrust drama firmly into the modern age when it premiered in 1879. Now, nearly 150 years later, acclaimed playwright Amy Herzog makes freshly relevant a story that shocked audiences and brought forth a new era of theatre. Herzog’s thrilling, compact and devastatingly contemporary adaptation runs a mere 110 minutes.

About Table Reads

Athens Community Theatre hosts several opportunities to read plays and musicals for fun each season. Participation in a table read is a great way to “dip a toe in” to see what working with ACT is like. The play is read casually: you can let us know if you want to participate or just listen in. And you can change your mind at any time.
