MATTAPOISETT — Enjoy a light lunch followed by an entertaining “Readers’ Theater” at the Mattapoisett Council on Aging on Tuesday, Dec. 10 at 12:30 p.m.

The readings will consist of poetry, prose and short plays/excerpts. There will be a focus on the holidays.

Readers’ Theater is a style of theater in which actors present dramatic readings of narrative material without costumes, scenery or special lighting. Actors use only scripts and vocal expressions to help the audience understand the story.

The performances might be called “reading hours” or “play readings.”
