Cambrian Players presents our final Green Room production of our 75th season – “A Public Reading of an Unpublished Screenplay about the Death of Walt Disney” by popular American playwright, Lucas Hnath, directed by Rachel Warburton.

Our Green Room shows are presented as staged readings, bringing a unique authenticity as our actors take to the stage with scripts in hand. With only three or four rehearsals prior to hitting the stage, these shows deliver a spontaneous experience for both the performers and the audience.

Join us on Saturday, February 15 for A Public Reading of an Unpublished Screenplay about the Death of Walt Disney by Lucas Hnath . At this performance, Walt is going to read you a screenplay he wrote. It’s about his last days on earth. It’s about a city he’s going to build that’s going to change the world. And it’s about his brother. It’s about everyone who loves him so much, and it’s about how sad they’re going to be when he’s gone. Right? I mean, how can they live without him? How can anyone live without him? This play is a fictionalized account of Walt Disney’s final chapter of life. The audience is essentially invited to watch a staged reading of Disney’s unproduced screenplay about his own life. Naturally, when a person tells a story about themselves, the line between truth and fiction begins to blur. We begin to dive deeper and deeper into Walt’s obsessions with being remembered, and leaving his legacy. This play talks about dark moments in Disney’s life, from entertaining dictators like Adolph Hitler at Disneyland to orchestrating a mass murder of lemmings when creating content for nature documentaries.
