Moments of Play – Great Show!

Tip of the hat to all of the playwrights, directors, actors, crew, and volunteers involved in STC’s third annual theater festival, “Moments of Play”.  The festival took place last weekend at the Peabody Essex Museum and was a terrific evening of fascinating, moving, and humorous original theater.  Despite Father’s Day, the NBA playoffs, and the Tony awards, around 100 people came to Morse Auditorium to take in a couple of hours of creative theater.  Special thanks from STC to PEM for helping to provide a home to the event this year!

If you attended or participated, let me know what you thought in the comments to this post.
