Full Moon Storm Water by Laurel Ann Lowe

On Nov 16, 2024, at 7:30 PM, we'll present a staged reading of Georgia playwright Laurel Ann Lowe's Full Moon Storm Water. It is FREE for anyone to attend our staged readings, though we do accept donations that help us keep our vibrant arts programming alive in our community.

ABOUT THE PLAY

When city life becomes too much for her to handle, Jemma Greene returns to her childhood home in the Georgia swamp. Nothing much has changed, or so she thinks. The sudden reappearance of an old flame threatens to shed light on secrets that Jemma’s overbearing mother has desperately tried to keep hidden, secrets that could change the way Jemma sees the world and herself. FULL MOON STORM WATER explores what makes us who we are, and what magic lies deep within the Okefenokee.

ABOUT OUR STAGED READINGS

At our staged readings, the dialogue and stage directions are read aloud so that the audience can hear what the play will sound like. Each of our staged readings has benefited from different levels of movement and physicality to paint a mental picture of what the full show will look like. The performance helps the playwright spot potential areas for strengthening their work in the future.

After the performance, there is a brief intermission followed by an optional moderated talkback. The audience has an opportunity to answer some simple questions about the show, as well as provide their general feedback on the show. This process is essential for new play development! Now is your chance to be a part of creating new art!
