Dear Community Member,

Read play love (RPL)  is a 501c non- profit that exists to empower children through the arts and create an inclusive culture of love. Since its inception, RPL has existed to share the arts with children of all backgrounds, beliefs, and abilities. RPL offers enrichment opportunities in all the arts, including musical theater and productions. The focus is always on the creative self-discovery of each child by creating empowering experiences and encouraging the development of inclusive collaboration. Every participating child has a role created specifically for them and is given the opportunity to shine and expand their growing edges of confidence and expression in ways that highlight their unique abilities and talents. Because of this, RPL has become a haven for many neurodivergent children who may have difficulty integrating in more traditional theatre settings.

We are currently rehearsing for Our Summer Musical, Whirld! ​Loosely inspired by Jules Verne's classic, Around the World in 80 Days, Whirld is a fantasy story that takes place in a 19th century "steampunk" landscape, moving through London, China, India, and the Chicago World's Fair, as a mysterious game offers untold riches to achieve "the impossible!" The performances are set for July 25-27 (Thurs-Sat) at 6pm at Cox Playhouse in Plano.

To further RPL’s mission, we will be hosting a Silent Auction and Raffle with various prizes at our next production. We hope you will consider donating an auction item, gift basket, or gift certificate. Your tax-deductible donation will be recognized on event programs viewed by parents, staff, and the community.
