Homegrown: Play Reading of Greyhound Famous

Pull back the curtain for an intimate view of the playmaking process! Penfold has collected scripts in development by rising stars in the Central Texas playwriting community and will be teasing them to audiences in a series of play readings throughout the spring and summer. Join us at the Round Rock Public Library’s beautiful new downtown campus while we nurture local voices, enjoy an up-close evening of laughter and surprise, and support Penfold’s new home in Round Rock set to open this fall!

Climb aboard Greyhound Famous, a hilarious and riveting travel log based on the real-life Mary Jo Pehl’s memoir “Employee of the Month and Other Big Deals” about her time before and after achieving D-list celebrity on Mystery Science Theatre 3000. Lacking confidence and direction, we’ll follow Mary Jo across the country on a disastrous book tour in search of something more.
