This season, ECC Theatre invites you to be part of something new.

Our staged reading series offers a first look at potential future productions-presented in a simple, low-pressure format with scripts in hand and a focus on storytelling, collaboration, and discovery.

 

Each night features a different play with a different director and cast, giving audiences a chance to experience a range of styles, voices, and characters. Each show will be presented twice.

After each reading, you’ll be invited to share your thoughts through a short survey. Your feedback will help guide what you may see on our stage in upcoming seasons.

Attend one...or experience all three.


With this series, you’re not just watching the process- you’re part of it.

Auditions March 8 and 9, 2027 at 6:30pm.

This series features a short rehearsal process.
