BYL Reading Challenge discussion

Plays are meant to be watched, but you can absolutely read them too! If you can pair it up with a stage production or adaptation, even better!

A Midsummer Night's Dream - William Shakespeare
Our Town - Thorton Wilder
The Crucible - Arthur Miller

I just finished Twelfth Night (Shakespeare), my first category completion for 2021!

I found this list of plays by Black Authors:

Think I'll check out one by August Wilson.

I ended up reading Ma Rainey's Black Bottom by August Wilson. It was a quick read & gave an interesting insight into what black musicians may have (still be) thinking about working with white people. I plan to read more in this series.

I watched instead of read for this one since I was able to find a university production recording of Eurydice while I had the script in front of me, and it was pretty entertaining. :)
