About Our Book Discussion

In addition to the four mainstage productions that make up our season, the Deep Dish Theater offers a Book Selection for each play that is designed to broaden and enhance the theater-going experience for our audience. We encourage participation and comments on our blogspot book discussion page as well as at the open forum discussion of the book that is free and open to the public, traditionally held prior to a designated performance of the current production.
