Our next script read is happening on Wednesday, May 27th at 7:00 pm, with doors opening at 6:45! This month's script read will be held at the BMO Theatre Centre (162 W 1st Ave); you can RSVP here.

This month's script is Trophy Boys by Emmanuelle Mattana.

St Imperium College’s all-boys team think they’ve got the Grand Finale of the Year 12 Interschool Debating Tournament in the bag. It’s the most important night of the academic year and the private school lads believe they’re about to intellectually own their sister school. The topic up for debate: "feminism has failed women." But as the boys are locked in a class for their one-hour prep time, inflated egos, hormones and nascent masculinity create a pressure cooker environment, leading to a chaotic turn of events. Played by a female and non-binary cast in drag, this uproarious satire exposes the insecurity, privilege, entitlement and misogyny that runs rife in Australia’s private boys schools. With graduates over-represented amongst the nation's powerbrokers and politicians, the award-winning Trophy Boys makes the case for an urgent change to the way in which the Australian education system is serving its young men, women and non-binary students.

Script reads are a way to get to know new plays, meet people, and stay engaged with your acting in a relaxed environment! At Bramble, we hope to create ways for people to keep engaging with theatre outside of working on shows. 

Everyone is welcome - bring a device to read off of and come on out to read a script with us.
