Readers Theater welcomes the public to join in a reading of The Way of the World by William Congreve on Thursday, May 16 at 7:00pm in the
Peter White Public Library Shiras Room.
The Way of the World is a stage play in the form of a comedy of
manners, which satirizes the attitudes, affectations, and foibles of
the privileged classes. Witty dialogue and romantic intrigue are among the characteristics of this genre.
William Congreve was among the pioneers of the comedy of manners in
England. His Majesty’s Servants, an acting company, staged the play in 1700 in a theater at Lincoln’s Inn Fields, a public square in London.
Refreshments will be served. Readers Theater is a group of adults, who are interested in drama and are willing and able to read a scripted role. They meet on the third Thursday of each month to read plays for enjoyment. New readers are always welcome.
