The first Potluck and Play in the new space was a great experience!
The readers read the hell outta their characters and the listeners were so thoughtful in their responses to this powerful, brutal and funny piece of theatre. 
To the bone it was indicative of what I wish the Performance Studio space to feel like. Home and comfort.
