You’re not going to want to miss the staged reading of the updated version of this brand new pulpy riot grrrl musical adaptation of The Scarlet Letter written by singer-songwriter Jill Sobule (“I Kissed a Girl,” “Supermodel”) and our 2020 Resident Playwright Krista Knight (Shooter!, Crush, Lipstick Lobotomy) that had its first reading last year at the Chance. In this musical, poetic justice has finally come for rebellious teen Winnie. She’s going to fail summer school and have to repeat the 11th grade unless she’s able to complete a book report. But that’s not the worst part. The worst part is that the book is Nathanial Hawthorne’s The Scarlet Letter—which Winnie does NOT want to read. Well, that’s too bad because she’s in a whole play about it.
NOTE: This show contains adult language.
This new play will be presented as a reading. Readings are an essential part of the play development process. We are proud to offer this as part of our On The Radar (OTR) New Works Program that aims to support the creation of diverse new stories by emerging U.S. playwrights
