The premise for Greg Hundemer’s play Simulacrum might seem a little far-fetched, but it’s fascinating. A woman has a dream about meeting a man who tells her she’s just a character in a story he’s writing. And she doesn’t completely doubt him. Is her life really just an invention, a plotline for a story she hasn’t read? Her real world and dream world collide, and she isn’t sure what to believe anymore. Simulacrum is part of the Fresh Ink Reading Series presented by Mildred’s Umbrella Theater Company. 7:30 p.m. 1824 Spring Street.
