Listen "The Lo-Down Culture Cast - "Your Faithful Reader""
Episode Synopsis
Host Traven Rice talks with director Miriam Wasmund and performer Liz Dutton about "Your Faithful Reader," an experiential theater performance that merges the worlds of acting and dance with real letters.
Participants were mailed writing prompts—suggestions of letters they may want to write: to others (known and unknown), to themselves, to their most beloved objects, or even the intangible.
The response was pages of heartfelt words, ranging from the romantic and fun to the most honest and brutal truths.
Now a company of actors, dancers, and creatives have given the letters (both anonymous and signed) new life in "Your Faithful Reader."
Performances of the current iteration are January 30 - February 2 at Teatro Latea (107 Suffolk St.)
