Local musicians are also invited to share their work-in-progress in the “unplugged” musical segment of the evening. Every live reading ends with a party in the Pub where you can meet up with other artists over a cold beer. The CRS is the place for Vancouver’s artists to meet one another, share their work, and create more. If you are curious about what local writers and musicians are cooking up, or if you want to check out Vancouver actors, the Cold Reading Series is your place to be. www.coldreadingseries.com RAMIFICATIONS OF A PARTICULAR CRASH: A dark comedy about a world-famous Hollywood starlet in free fall, as she returns to the home of the family who's daughter she killed in a car crash three years earlier. Sounds hilarious, right? It is. Written by Kris Elgstrand Starring Lori Triolo, Brad Dryborough, Lara Gilchrist and Maxine Chadburn Directed by Martin Kinch Ramifications opens on May 28 at the Blake Snyder Theatre at GO Studios. .
