My H8 Letter to the Gr8 American Theatre (A Reading)

Scout Davis (2021)

In the midst of the omicron variant, the MFA Directing Fellows, organized by Scout Davis, held a zoom reading of Diana Oh’s monumental play “My H8 Letter to the Gr8 American Theatre” with an acting company from the school of drama.

The project included a 2-day workshop exploring Oh’s text while interacting with Diana. The workshop’s goal was to excavate the play’s greater themes and extrapolate them to brainstorm a new future for the field.

This project was made possible with support of grant# 2021-030 from the Frank-Ratchye Fund for Art @ the Frontier.
