Too Strange to Live, Too Weird to Die is back! This reading series, curated by Literary Manager Todd Brian Backus, features beautiful and bizarre plays that stretch the limits of the theatrical imagination.

“For those of you just tuning in, Thanksgiving is already in progress here at Wembly kitchen. The stands are nice and full, it’s quite a crowd that’s gathered. They’re in for a real treat.” As the lights go up on A Beautiful Day in November on the Banks of the Greatest of the Great Lakes we’re greeted by the dulcet tones of sports commentators as an all-American family gets ready for the original bloodsport, Thanksgiving Dinner.

Featuring: Maureen Butler, Shannon Campbell, Moira Driscoll*, Nolan Ellsworth, James Herrera, Abigail Killeen*, Erica Murphy, James Patefield, Dustin Tucker*, and Maya Williams.
