Rough Draughts

Rough Draughts is The NOLA Project's free monthly play reading series held on the final monday of most months at NOLA Brewing Company at 3001 Tchoupitoulas St. Admission to the readings is FREE, though donations are always welcome. Come out and hear brand new plays that we are considering for production and offer us some friendly feedback about what you hear! The idea is to promote the reading and eventual production of new plays, give a voice to talented theatre writers, and create a more familial bond between the NOLA Project family of company members and patrons. 

THIS MONTH'S READING:

OREGON TRAIL 2 by A.J. Allegra

Monday, May 25th at 7:30pm on Facebook Live

​

Once more, we are going digital with our socially-distant May Rough Draughts reading. This month, we are presenting a LIVE reading of OREGON TRAIL 2, the sequel to our sold-out hit cult comedy from 2013. 

​

Cantankerous narrator Matt is in danger of losing his General Store to the greedy Samuel Walton. Can the remaining Bootsmeyers make the trek BACK to Missouri in time to save the day? Will the family suffer any more casualties? Does anybody really WANT this sequel??? Find out for yourself on Monday, May 25th!
