Regional gathering recap: August 2014

JAWS Frederick: The Frederick, Maryland, regional group of JAWS had a special event for our July mixer. We were able to celebrate and attend the public reading of a play written by JAWS member Nancy Luse. The group met at a wine bar before the reading to toast Nancy and then headed to the Maryland Ensemble Theater to watch a reading of Nancy’s play, “Bus Buddies.” It was a hilarious and touching play and the actors and actresses reading the play were phenomenal.

During a Q&A following the staged reading, the producer suggested that their group will do more workshops of Nancy’s play and that she should try her hand at getting it into a festival. The theater was packed with Nancy’s friends, family, JAWS members, colleagues and supporters. It was great to see so many people there supporting her!
