Compass Rose Company Presents, Theatre Is... a book club podcast where all the books we read are plays! Every month we’ll select a new play to read, then come together to discuss it from all aspects. Including the life of the playwright, an in-depth summary of the play, and the deeper meaning behind the work. We hope everyone can tune in and enjoy our discussions, from the seasoned theatre veteran to first-time play readers.
Theatre Is... The Open HandWe are three episodes in! This month we take time diving into the amazing dialogue of The Open Hand this amazing play takes its time building to its own climax with beautifully scenes lead by dialogue. This play takes intimate moments and turns them up to 100% making for terrifically awkward moments that feel all too real. We are excited to have a great conversation about the plots and scenes that make up this wonderful play!Wanna get a head start on next month's play?

Theatre Is… Much Ado About NothingHello! This month we tackle our first Shakespearian play; the classic comedy Much Ado About Nothing! In this episode, we discuss misheard conversations, several conspiracies, and a wedding canceled at the altar! Being our first Shakespearian play, we wanted to focus mostly on comprehension of the plot and characters. As we go along summarizing the plot we take moments to reflect on the high jinks and pivotal character moments that we enjoyed reading along the way.Wanna get a head start on next month's play?
