Join us this weekend, July 9 and 10, for the first two of four staged, new play readings at Talespinner Children's Theatre (TCT), at 5209 Detroit Avenue, Cleveland, OH 44102.

PLAYground is a staged-reading workshop of four exciting new plays for kids, based on international folktales and lore, by Cleveland-area playwrights. This program highlights the joyful work of emerging local playwrights and directors, giving voice to their work, and a chance to get feedback from an audience in a developmental setting.

Audiences are invited to stay after each reading for a moderated discussion with playwright, director, & cast. We welcome your comments!

All works showcased in PLAYground workshops are up for consideration for full production in future seasons at TCT.

No reservations necessary. Price of admission is a SUGGESTED Pay What You Want.
