The Bachelor Party - a Staged Reading by Davin Grindstaff
The Bachelor Party - A Staged Reading
Tennessee Playwrights Studio is proud to present, in association with the Del Shores Foundation, a staged reading of The Bachelor Party - a Finalist of the Del Shores Foundation 2023 Writers Search. Written by Davin Grindstaff and Directed by Daniel Jones. Sponsored by Jeremy Hobbs and Western Wind Foundation
Four longtime friends retreat to a quaint little hotel in the country to celebrate the upcoming marriage of Richard and Steven with a bachelor party. Unbeknownst to them, they are not the only anticipated guests that weekend. A classic farce with a slightly queer twist – okay, it’s a fairly sizable queer twist. A complicated love triangle. Doors galore. Mistaken identities and compromising positions abound.
Tickets are free, but donations are welcome!
The Cast
This reading features Nashville favorites and is helmed by the multi-talented Daniel Jones!
