Play-Reading Group at Witherle Library

Location

Witherle Memorial Library

The play we have chosen to begin with is called Seminar, written by Theresa Rebeck. Set in present-day New York, Seminar is a bittersweet comedy that follows four young writers — Kate, Martin, Douglas, and Izzy — and their professor, Leonard. Each student has paid Leonard $5,000 for a ten-week writing seminar to be held in Kate’s Upper West Side apartment. As tensions arise and romance falls, they clash over their writing, their relations, and their futures. Seminar opened on Broadway in 2011 to excellent reviews.
