Dessert Theater & Book Unveiling
11/10/2014 7:00 PM - 9:00 PM
Malden Reads will conclude its slate of 2014 programming on Monday, November 10, with dessert theater and a sneak peak of what’s in store for 2015.
This free event invites the community to enjoy a dessert while watching professional actors perform a stage reading of an original play by local playwright Licia Sky.
Co-hosted with the North Shore Black Women's Association, the event will feature a 45-minute dramatization of the Malden Reads 2014 featured selection The Immortal Life of Henrietta Lacks. Written by Rebecca Skloot, the book upon which the play is based is a true story about a woman whose unique cells were collected without her knowledge in 1951 and are still used today in medical research.
Desserts will be provided by Brother Trucker Catering, a division of Stock Pot Malden.
The local non-profit Triangle has provided a venue for the program, at 420 Pearl Street. The show starts at 7 p.m. In addition to the program, Malden Reads will share the new book for the 2015 season. Now in its fifth year, Malden Reads is a grassroots program that invites the community to read the same book and then participate in a series of events based on themes from the book. Previous featured selections include The Soloist, Outcasts United and The Absolutely True Diary of a Part Time Indian.
Be among the first to know about the 2015 featured selection. And, in honor of our fifth year, five free copies of the 2015 book selection will be given out as a door prize! To reserve your seat for the event, contact Malden Reads at maldenreads@gmail.com or 781-321-2935. Leave your name, contact info (email or phone #) and number of people in your party.
Monday, November 10 is the night before the Veteran's Day holiday. Hope to see you at the "Dessert Theater" event!
