Play Date is an online monthly play reading club by Crane Creations Theatre Company where you can read or listen to a play, live on Zoom. Play Date is a great activity if you want to practice English by reading aloud, are a lover of theatre and want to read great plays from around the world, or want to connect with other people.

This month we are reading Silence! The Court is in Session by Vijay Tendulkar.

About the Play: The play is about a group of teachers who have a performance for a mock trial, though on the day of the performance they find out one of their troupe’s members is missing- so they bring on a stage-hand, Samant. An improvised, free-flowing “rehearsal’ is arranged and a mock trial is staged to make the stage-hand understand court procedures. Miss Benare, one of the cast members and a young school teacher, has received a mock charge of infanticide, the killing of an infant. As the trial continues, it becomes more and more dramatic and revealing.
