Salon Reading Series

Each Salon Reading Series event features a reading of a play followed by a moderated discussion of the play's themes and how these themes apply to the community. The theme for 2023-24 is "Should I Stay or Should I Go?" This theme will explore concepts and idea of home, and what it means to leave home, by choice or by necessity; and the impacts of that decision on the persons involved. The Salon Reading Series is free and open to the public, with two readings each week: the first on Sunday afternoon at 2pm in the Turbine Flats Resonator Gallery at 2124 Y St the second Thursday evening at 6:30pm  in the Eastmont Living's theater space at 6315 O St in Lincoln. 1000 Miles by Vanessa Garcia Solis just arrived in The City from 1000 Miles Across the Sea. She’s searching for family, for a way to carve out a new life. But The City is changing, and the very skills Solis brings with her can either save or destroy this new place she's beginning to call home. 1000 Miles is a play about what it means to migrate to a new place. It’s a play about survival, surveillance, nationalism, and the nature of opportunity. About the walls that block our path and the new doors we try to open to save ourselves and those we love.
