What is sportaculture? I'm not sure if this is an actual word, but there is no doubt that sports are important parts of our lives. Just take a look at the avid Caps fans rocking the red all over the D.C. area in the past couple weeks. But did you know how many playwrights merge sports with theater? I certainly didn't – until I read about the event known as Sportaculture (no coincidence there) taking place at Riverdale Town Center in Riverdale this Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
r
This event features seven free performances by local playwrights. Some of the subjects include the Nationals winning the World Series, father and son sharing a moment at FedEx Field, a cele ation of the Terps winning the National Championship, a girl invading the mancave while a group of guys watch the Redskins game, rugby on the National Mall, and a high school locker room in Camp Springs.
r
Show up at 7:30 on Friday or Saturday to check them all out, or come on Sunday at 2 to enjoy ArtsFest at the same time. No athletic ability is required.
