Join Pleiades in celebrating our 25th anniversary with a special reading of the first play we ever produced
MARCEL PURSUED BY THE HOUNDS
​
Pleiades Theatre first hit the boards in the 1997/1998 season with a production of Marcel Pursued by the Hounds with the Tarragon Theatre. To celebrate we are presenting a special public reading on May 18th, 2023 once again at the Tarragon Theatre. This unique fundraiser will feature a new cast to entertain you. Guests will include original director, translator, and company founder John Van Burek as well as some of the original cast. In keeping with the idea of a 25th birthday party we will be providing refreshments and drinks and various free prize draws. As a special look at Pleiades Theatre's history there will be some special guests from our past.
