In honor of Black History Month, Serendipity Player’s Readers Theater presents, “By the Way, Meet Vera Stark”, a new comedy by Pulitzer Prize winner, Lynn Nottage. The production, inspired by screwball films of the 1930’s will keep you laughing and leave you thinking. Vancouver Organization for Contemporary Art (VOCA), 906 Harney Street, is hosting the event on February 21st and 22nd at 7:30pm.
“By the Way, Meet Vera Stark” is a seventy-year journey through the life of Vera Stark, a headstrong African-American maid and budding actress, and her tangled relationship with her boss, a white Hollywood star desperately grasping to hold on to her career. When circumstances collide and both women land roles in the same Southern epic, the story behind the cameras leaves Vera with a surprising and controversial legacy scholars will debate for years to come.
Admission is $8 and includes refreshments. For more information or to make reservations, call 360-834-3588.
