First Comes The Egg by Taryn Fixel will be directed by Kaily Smith. On the precipice of motherhood, Marlie must navigate personal and professional boundaries in the high stakes world of venture capitalism and innovation when an old friend reappears with a life changing offer. How much of herself is she truly willing to risk? Three staged readings will close out the workshop process on Monday, April 24; Tuesday, April 25; and Wednesday, April 26, each at 8 p.m. Admission to the reading is $25.
