Festival Reading #5: Saidah by Jennifer Hoyt Tidwell

Kristen-Saffron Henke
Taylor-Nick McCord
Barbara/Nina/Katie-Amanda Mansfield

Sa'idah is rescued from a war zone by American celebrity parents who adopt her. Caught between two extremes, the isolation of wealth and fame and the violence and poverty of her past, Sai'dah fantasizes about a regular life.
About the Festival:
Each year, our New Works Advisory Board reads between 50 and 100 plays taken from the cumulative body of work of student playwrights who will be coming for the current summer session. These plays are ranked and vetted, and ten are selected for staged readings in collaboration with directors associated with our program--Certificate students, visiting faculty and guest artists.
These readings are presented free to the public, but there is limited seating. We also bring in more than a dozen guest responders who are active working theatre professionals from across the country. Many of our festival readings have gone on to be published, produced and won major awards. Come see tomorrow's stars today!
Our festival is presented in collaboration with Mill Mountain Theatre on their Waldron Stage.
