Hudgens will lead a staged reading of the musical adaptation of the beloved 2004 film The Notebook. Based on the novel by Nicholas Sparks, The Notebook is a romantic drama about the enduring love between Noah and Allie, spanning the earliest days of their teen courtship through their struggles to remember each other in their twilight years. Hudgens will portray “middle” Allie, the character played by Rachel McAdams on screen (opposite Ryan Gosling), who engages in the most torrid part of the central love affair. Tony nominee Michael Greif will direct the previously announced reading, to be held in Vassar College’s Martel Theater on June 23 at 3:00pm.
