Under the artistic guidance of playwright Marcia Jablonski, the Alley Stage Reading Series is set to feature works by Midwestern writers. The series focuses on the creative ecosystem of the Driftless Area and offers playwrights a platform to present their works-in-progress. Each reading will be followed by a talkback session at Alley Stage, providing playwrights with audience feedback to help refine their scripts.

The readings are scheduled for Sundays at 4 p.m., with subsequent discussions and receptions at the Art Cafe. In case of rain, events will move to Sardeson Studio. Tickets and more information can be found on Shake Rag Alley's website.
