PHILADELPHIA: DG Footlights™

Join us in the brand new Heim Center at the Free Library of Philadelphia's Parkway Central Branch for a reading of a brand new play by Charles Primerano!

In East Genesee Street, it's 1932 and Ned Beekman is trying to get back on his feet and reunited with his wife and son. Net strikes up a friendship with his neighbor, Annette Tunny, and her mother senses a romantic attachment forming. Ned and Annette are each confronted with the imprecise nature of having dreams come true and must choose how to live with what they have been granted.

DG Footlights™ is a program, created and moderated by the Dramatists Guild, that connects dramatists with free space in which to hold a public reading of a new work that is currently in development. This initiative operates on a space-grant model: a representative from the Guild will arrange for a venue to donate space during allocated dates and times, and will ensure that the space is available for dramatists to use to present a self-produced reading to the public, with an optional feedback session following the reading. Attendance is always free and open to all.
