About this Event
Scripted Social - Play Reading Group (February's Read)
We invite you along to 53two Studio in Manchester for our February play reading group session ran by Jessica Moir who is a creative facilitator and actor! Join us on 28th February, 2026 at 10:00 AM to dive into our selected script which for this month is Road by Jim Cartwright! Let's gather together, share our thoughts, and enjoy the magic of theatre in a safe, communal setting. No acting experience required, just bring your enthusiasm and love for the stage. See you there!
Road
‘Road’s coming round us!‘
It’s 1986. Your rumbustious chaperone Scullery guides you down the road, picking up the raucous and the ready for it, as ‘owt can happen tonight’. From dusk till dawn, the hopelessly hilarious and divinely desperate laugh, sing, dance and eat chips – all searching for something different.
Jim Cartwright’s award-winning masterpiece invites you to join the inhabitants of this derelict northern road on an unforgettable journey. Shockingly relevant to our lives today, the play’s visceral, eloquent poetry paints a tough world with tenderness.
