Join us at The Bunker Performance Lounge & Cafe for a special staged reading of Don’t You Dare Run Away, a new play by Robin Taylor Wright.
Legendary 70s Canadian folk pop band the Schneiders (Vanna, Grace, and Abby) reunite for the first time in over two decades. However, when the siblings arrive, they discover their hit song "Don't You Dare Run Away" is unplayable; Abby believes it to be a curse related to the untimely passing of their bandmate and sister, Shoshanna. Time is running out as their radio performance approaches. Can the Schneiders reconcile their differences and guilt and play their hit song just one more time for their adoring fans nationwide?
This reading features performances by Maria Vacratsis, Gordon S. Miller, Aubree Erickson, Emma Rudy, and Tyler Check, with stage direction provided as part of the live reading format.
