Spotlight Reading Series
Court Theatre’s Spotlight Reading Series returns! This year’s Spotlight Reading Series will feature works of Theodore Ward (1902-1983), often referred to as the “dean of Black dramatists,” whose works explored the complexities of Black life in America, from the Civil War, to the Second Great Migration, and beyond. Court will stage Ward’s Big White Fog as the first production of the 2025/26 season.
The Spotlight Reading Series will run from August 13–15 at the Reva and David Logan Center for the Arts (915 E 60th Street). All events are free and open to the public and reservations are required.
