On November 12th and 13th 2004, Readers Theater Repertory staged an evening themed That’s Absurd! featuring Playwriting 101: The Rooftop Lesson by Rich Orloff The Dumb Waiter, by Harold Pinter.

Directed by Matthew Martin, the stories shift reality, and confront audiences with truths hidden in everyday life. “People talk at each other,” said Martin, “not to each other. These plays use powerful dialogue to show us how much we say, and how little we hear‹and the unpredictable results.”

The cast features Bob Martin, Randy Patterson and Jeffrey Siri
