Readers Theatre at SJCT March 18 and 19

San Juan Community Theatre’s On Book! Readers Theatre series features Christopher Durang’s comical Vanya and Sonia and Masha and Spike on Tuesday and Wednesday, March 18 and 19 at 7:30 p.m. in the Gubelman Theatre.

The Tony Award-winning play features middle-aged siblings Vanya and Sonia who live in the family home in Bucks County, Pennsylvania. Named for characters in plays by Anton Chekhov, Vanya and Sonia have not had to grow up. Neither has a job, and money is provided by their sister Masha, who is a movie star, who owns the house and pays the bills. Vanya (who is gay) and Sonia (who is forever reminding everyone that she is adopted) spend their days doing nothing, bemoaning their rather Chekovian lot in life. Their world is turned upside down when Masha returns home bringing her much younger dimwitted lover, Spike.

The reading is directed by Joy Van Camp.

Doors open at 7:00 p.m. with festival seating. Admission is free.
