Spiritus, a reading series, will be presented at the DR2 Theatre. Each reading of Spiritus will feature a different celebrated actor taking on the role of Virgil — offering a fresh, unique, and deeply personal interpretation of this moving solo work. Written by Pulitzer Prize finalist Dael Orlandersmith — and inspired by Dante’s Inferno — Spiritus is a stirring solo play about how we live and how we die. Readers will include Celia Keenan-Bolger (October 20), Dael Orlandersmith (October 27), Edie Falco (November 10), and John Douglas Thompson (November 17). Following each reading, special guests will join audiences in conversation — expanding the play's exploration of life, loss, and purpose.
