The Play

A reading
and a tasting.

Wine Play is five scenes set in the world of wine: a vineyard, a crushpad, a wine cellar, a brownstone, an apartment, each opening up the strange, tender things people confess with a glass in hand. Funny, messy, sensual, occasionally feral.

Each scene is paired with its own wine, poured for the audience as the scene begins, so the glass in your hand and the play in front of you are tasted together.

Playwright and sommelier Dani Nelson created this experience to converge her two crafts, her two loves.

From the first reading.

An actor at a music stand performs to an audience seated on couches in a room with tall city windows.
Two actors clutch each other, mouths open in delighted shock.
Four actors at music stands raise their arms mid-scene.
