your faithful reader
A sharing. A letting go. A passing of stories.
AN EXPERIENTIAL THEATRE PERFORMANCE BY MIRIAM WASMUND & COMPANY
CHECK BACK SOON FOR AN EXCITING UPDATE!
Dear Audience Member,
Thank you for your continued support throughout the 2024 season of Your Faithful Reader. While we had some unexpected challenges to our fall production, we wanted to express our sincerest gratitude to all of you who have stuck by our side and championed us through a difficult situation. With your support, we were able to turn a less fortunate situation into a positive one—successfully pivoting to produce not one, but two events within a week's time! And as if that wasn't enough, you continued to feel moved to attend those events and show us an outpouring of love—a love and appreciation we would like to reflect back at you. So thank you, dear Audience Member. No words could accurately express what you have meant and continue to mean to us. Your support only further fuels our passion and drive to develop and tell the stories that matter most—yours.
With love,
Miriam Wasmund & Company
A NOTE FROM US TO YOU
AUDIENCE FEEDBACK
"I love the creativity it takes to translate these letters to the stage. This iteration of the show was very female centric. The stories were powerful, the actors were amazing storrytellers and the dancing was very impactful. This is not the first time I’ve seen this show and certainly won’t be my last."

concept
Developed by writer and performer Miriam Wasmund, Your Faithful Reader merges the worlds of acting and dance with real letters.
Interested participants were mailed writing prompts—suggestions of letters they may want to write: to others (known and unknown), to themselves, to their most beloved objects, or even the intangible.
The response was pages of heartfelt words, ranging from the romantic and fun to the most honest and brutal truths.
Now a company of actors, dancers, and creatives have given the letters (both anonymous and signed) new life in Your Faithful Reader.
