Stories on Stage Davis
Naomi Williams, author of the novel Landfalls, long-listed for the Center for Fiction First Novel Prize and former Director of Stories on Stage Davis and actor Sara Matsui-Colby will be presenting a reading of “Dead Astronauts”—about nine-year-old Hana lives in Long Beach, California, in 1972, in a family she already understands is strange — a white father who speaks perfect Japanese, a Japanese mother who won’t step onto the balcony without her outside shoes, a religion that keeps detailed records on who will burn forever and who will not.
Jeri Howitt, Founder and Director of Stories on Stage Davis from 2013-2016, and returning to the Director position for Season XII and Tim Gaffaney, Director of Casting for Stories on Stage Davis will present a reading of a story called “Escape, Escape, Escape”—a psychological suspense piece with a light, almost playful touch — until suddenly isn’t. This is a story that will stay with you, and that performs beautifully, because so much of what it’s about is the unreliability of the voice telling it. Storiesonstagedavis.com
