Has anyone ever attended one of Jason Reitman's Live Read Series performances? They are a stage reading of a movie script, and they have been performed with big name stars in LA and NY.

For example, there was a reading in NYC of The Apartment, the Billy Wilder film starring Jack Lemon and Shirley MacLaine, with Paul Rudd and Emma Stone reading the Lemon/MacLaine roles.

Reitman has also directed stage readings in LA of everything from The Breakfast Club to Reservoir Dogs.

I ask because Reitman will be hosting a stage reading of American Beauty on the opening day of the Toronto International Film Festival this week and I am planning to attend.
