READERS’ THEATER GENERAL MEETING 2 p.m., Tuesdays, Jan. 16, Feb. 20, Mar. 20 This group performs for senior living facilities in the South Hills area. So what is Readers’ Theater? Well, the difference between theater and Readers’ Theater is that there is no stage setting—the “actors” read from scripts (so there is no memorizing of lines). However, it is not merely reading: the actors do act and interact with each other, bringing scenes to life for the enjoyment of the audience. The group is always seeking new members, so drop by a general meeting to learn more. SOUTH HILLS SCRABBLE CLUB 1 p.m., Saturdays MT.
