The Spring Green Literary Festival is, once again, sponsoring an opportunity to read out loud four plays from American Players Theatre's (APT) 2022 season. Sundays April 3rd, April 10th, April 24th, and May 1st at 2:00 pm.

April 10 will be a reading of Marisela Treviño Orta’s The River Bride,

From American Players Theatre:

A mystery emerges from a river, and a fable takes flight. It’s unabashedly romantic; nestled in the everyday, and buoyed by magic. It slips seamlessly into the world of plays that live here – contemporary and eternal, capturing the ever-shifting story that spins between lovers and among families. Relationships like this require something braver than love. They require trust. The kind that puts your heart on notice. It’s a challenge that’s part thrill and part threat. Rising to it may be the only hope for happily-ever-after.

Helena's feelings about her sister Belmira's wedding to Duarte are complicated, much like her relationships with both Belmira and Duarte themselves. But Helena's thoughts are redirected when her father literally fishes a mysterious man out of the Amazonian river, sending everyone's plans into upheaval in this riveting fable about the complexities of love.
