ORPHAN BLACK REUNION & TABLE READING
May 17, 2020  | By David Bianculli

Facebook, 3:00 p.m. ET

 
When Orphan Black was still in production, and presented on BBC America, the cast occasionally would show up at fan conventions and do table reads, reciting their respective lines from scripts and having a good time. Now they’re doing a similar thing for charity, online and separated in their own homes, reading from two old scripts from Season 1. Tatiana Maslany, who just co-starred on Broadway opposite Bryan Cranston in Network, and her co-stars will reunite today at 3 p.m. ET, on the Orphan Black Facebook page, for a virtual reunion benefiting CenterLink and Sistering Toronto. All the regular cast members are taking part – but if you think about it, this is the one TV show that could pull off a reunion with one person alone. Maslany, after all, plays so many Clone Club characters on Orphan Black, she can reunite with herself. And at this reading, you’ll see how chameleonic she is, even without the benefit of differentiating wigs, costumes and makeup.
