A Woman Caught Between Love, Reputation, and Survival
Join us for a dramatic reading of The House of Mirth, adapted from Edith Wharton’s classic novel.
Beautiful, well-connected, and without a fortune, Lily Bart must marry to secure her future in New York’s high society. But as she struggles to choose between wealth and love, scandal and betrayal pull her into a downward spiral. This poignant adaptation captures the emotional depth and sharp social commentary of Wharton’s original work through the immediacy of live performance.
Experience the tension, wit, and heartbreak of Lily’s world brought to life in a staged reading that will resonate long after the final lines.
