AMOK: A Stage Reading Marathon

When: Oct 18 12-8pm; See below for schedule
Location: Bindlestiff Studio 185 6th St. San Francisco, CA
Tickets: $5; Click here to purchase tickets.

A full day of raw, new works from emerging Filipino-American playwrights. Come for a play or stay for the day.

Amok is a word from the Malay language that has made its way into the English dictionary. It connotes frenzy, wildness, an act of savage commitment. In can also mean the focused ability to delve into a world, to connect and immerse deeply in an experience.

A play needs to be seen, heard and shared. The purpose of this production is to give space for the writer to hear their work, in collaboration with a director who will lead the actors in the exploration, interpretation, and expression of the work.

We welcome you to commit your day with us and immerse yourself fully into the varied and raw worlds spun by our emerging writers.
