Bedlam reading of Entertaining Mr. Sloane
Every other Tuesday for the rest of the calendar year, BEDLAM will be presenting live virtual play readings in an effort to raise funds and awareness for the #BlackLivesMatter movement and associated organizations working toward eliminating race-based discrimination.
We pledge that all proceeds will go directly toward these efforts.
We are currently compiling a list of organisations in need. If you have suggestions to add to our list, please reach out to us directly at: info@bedlam.org
Please consider a gift in any amount to support the EQUAL JUSTICE INITIATIVE.
