PLAY READING by THORNE STREET PARLOUR

Savannah Sipping Society, by Jessie Jones, Nicholas Hope & Jamie Wooten – Four unique Southern women, all needing to escape the sameness of their day-to-day routines, are drawn together by Fate—and an impromptu happy hour—and decide it’s high time to reclaim the enthusiasm for life they’ve lost through the years. Over the course of six months, these women successfully bond and find the confidence to jumpstart their new lives. Together, they discover lasting friendships and a renewed determination to live in the moment—and most importantly, realize it’s never too late to make new old friends.

Thorne Street Parlour readings are suppored though a Neighborhood Purpose Grant from The Hermon Neighborhood Council. 

Thorne Street Parlous has been in existence for over 10 years – a groupof theatre-loving friends, gathering together to read greatscripts. For 10 years we presented an annual season of readings, initially in our parlour on Thorne Street, and then via Zoom during COVID. With the parlour currently under renovation, we’ve chosen to expand for 2025 and present our readings to a larger audience. Operating under the auspices of the Highland Park Heritage Trust, and with a generous Neighborhood Purpose Grant from the Hermon Neighborhood Council, we are very pleased to present our slate of performances for this year – all readings take place at Art in The Park in Hermon, CA. These readings are free and open to the public, with a light reception to follow. The favor of an RSVP is requested to that we can have an accurate headcount – we hope you can join us for these afternoons of great theatre!   – jj Jackman & Sara Stuckey, Founders, Thorne Street Parlour
