Manhattan Theatre Club (Lynne Meadow, Artistic Director; Barry Grove, Executive Producer) has announced the lineup for the 2020 Ted Snowdon Reading Series. The readings kick off Mon Mar 2 and will be held on Mondays through March 23. The readings will take place at New York City Center – Stage I (131 West 55th St). All readings are free and open to the public, but space is limited and reservations are required. To reserve a seat, please call (212) 399-3000 x 4163. Now in its 22nd year, this rehearsed reading series is dedicated to the support and development of innovative new work, offering each playwright a week-long rehearsal period with directors and actors. This year, the series will feature four new plays, including one MTC commission. The schedule is as follows.  March 2 at 4:00 PM: GOOD TIME CHARLIE by Ryan J. Haddad, directed by Danny Sharron.  Charlie may be Cleveland’s most glamorous dentist, but tonight he claims his rightful place on the New York stage. Written by (and co-starring) his well-meaning but entitled nephew, Ryan, "Good Time Charlie" traces mentorship, memory, and gay identity across generations; March 9 at 4:00 PM: THE COLLAPSE by Selina Fillinger, directed by Margot Bordelon. Alice is thrilled when she lands a summer research position with Viola Vauclain, the legendary entomologist specializing in bees. But as the summer goes on, it quickly becomes clear that the apiarian colonies are not the only thing on the verge of collapse. March 16 at 4:00 PM: LAUGHS IN SPANISH by Alexis Scheer, directed by David Mendizábal. It’s Art Basel in Miami at Mariana's gallery opening in the Wynwood Arts District and the unthinkable has happened: the artwork is missing. And when Mariana's movie-star mom shows up to help, things only get more complicated; March 23 at 4:00 PM: (AN AUDIO GUIDE FOR) UNSUNG SNAILS AND HEROES by Julia Izumi, directed by Jenny Koons. In 1945, a young girl journeys from Japan to Manchuria to retrieve her deceased father’s bones, just before the end of World War II. Inspired by a true story from the playwright’s family history, this beguiling, epic yet personal play follows an ancestor snail and a self-guided audio tour to excavate the definition of heroism across generations and cultures.
