RED READINGS
PLAY READINGS & WORKSHOPS
Red Readings is our public play reading and workshop series, which has been running on and off since 2018. In our initial years, these were monthly readings of new NZ plays, held at the the Third Eye bar for koha entry. Red Readings has since been revised as a workshop series and was hosted in 2022 at Te Auaha.
