Theatre Production: What's Saving My Life

St. Davids, PA: Eastern University Theatre is proud to present a staged reading of What’s Saving My Life with a post-performance discussion. 

When: January 25-26, 2025; 7-8:30 pm

Where: McInnis Auditorium on Eastern’s St. Davids campus; 1300 Eagle Rd, St Davids, PA 19087

Inspired by a Barbara Brown Taylor sermon, a college playwriting professor asks her incarcerated students to consider the question: "What's saving my life right now?" Through scenes and monologues written by these students, What's Saving My Life will encourage audiences to see and appreciate the little and big things that are saving us.

This 90-minute event will include both the Reader's Theatre presentation of scenes and monologues written by students incarcerated at SCI Chester and the post-performance discussion, Problems and Possibilities for Theatre Education in Prison.

Admission is FREE, but donations to Eastern University's Theatre Department will be gratefully accepted at the door.
