Audiences will be reminded of our August water crisis during an upcoming reading of Henrik Isben’s play, An Enemy of the People. The realist comedy, set in 1882, tells the story of a doctor discovering that his town’s baths and spa has a tainted water supply. After realizing that there is poison in the water, the doctor approaches the media and is met with an ethical dilemma: should he spark controversy or allow the problem to be fixed quietly? The North Coast Theatre presents a reading of the play, with the script abridged and directed by co-founded Christine Child. Enjoy light refreshments and drinks during the production while reflecting on our summer crisis.
7:30pm Wednesday, January 21 & Thursday, January 29. $15/advance, $20/door. Historic Lobby at the Oliver House, 27 Broadway. 419-243-1302, myartbooth.com/northcoasttheatre/home.
