Euphoria
Stage 773 Chicago, IL
In case you were unable to attend our last reading (or you are just looking for something to do), you're in luck!
WE'RE COMING BACK!
You are cordially invited to attend a semi-staged workshop reading of EUPHORIA, a new comedy. This is your chance to take part in the creative process and to offer your input on this work-in-progress.
*************************************************************************
Joseph March is not a happy man. He's stuck in a dead end job. His boyfriend has left him for a younger man. There's a naked stranger in his bed. And, he's about to turn forty.
When his friends want to whisk him away for a surprise birthday get-a-way, what's a nice, gay guy supposed to do? Go along for the ride!!
If Joseph can survive the weekend, he just might find . . . EUPHORIA.
