In 2013, Long Beach Senior Arts Colony resident Barbara Fay organized a Reader’s Theatre troupe and for the next five years the group, who shared a love for theater, met every week to read through plays, scenes, monologues, and poems. Over the years they produced and performed 25 productions which were enjoyed by the residents and invited guests in the theater at LBSAC. The final farewell show, entitled “Simply Human,” played to a full house and included a festive food reception, poster boards with pictures and flyers of favorite past productions, and a moving tribute to all of the cast members who participated during the past five theatrical seasons. During the show, each actor took a star turn and the audience stood on their feet to show their admiration and appreciation!
Bravo to the LBSAC Readers Theatre Company!
