In this workshop, we’ll be thinking about how the body exists on stage. We’ll talk a lot about how different theatre is from the story-telling media we engage with on a daily basis: film, TV, podcasts. Film and TV are visual media. Podcasts are all about aural experience. But theatre is visual and aural. It’s the only storytelling medium that engages—or can engage—every single sense. (You can’t smell or taste or touch a movie or a podcast, right?

ANTIGONE by Sophocles, in a translation by David Mulroy
Directed by Michole Biancosino
With original choral compositions by Carol Christensen
Given the choice to follow the law of the state or her own sense of duty to her family, a young woman stands up and resists, even though she risks losing everything. This timely Greek tragedy explores justice, conscience, and what it means to live by one’s beliefs.
Please join us for a post-show talkback with the company directly after Friday’s performance.
