Apartment 3A by Jeff Daniels

Annie Wilson, director of fund-raising for PBS Channel 68, is faced with a series of personal and professional predicaments. Reeling from a broken heart, Annie chooses a new apartment in a different neighborhood and befriends a mysterious next-door neighbor who may hold the secret to a brighter future.

The Chelsea District Library and the Purple Rose Theatre are pleased to offer full-cast readings of upcoming or debut plays by new and established playwrights. Enjoy professional quality plays and acting with no admittance costs, and get a chance to share your thoughts and feedback with the director, playwright, and actors.
