Antigone
Black Box Play
Gr. 9-12
Audition requests open October 21, 6 pm
This program is audition based and participants register after they are offered and accept a role.
Viewed as a contest between equally determined and fierce competitors, both right and both wrong, the play is an intense examination of the questions: "What happens when neither side in a conflict agrees to yield?" "What happens when one sees the catastrophic consequences of one's actions too late?" WCT’s Black Box Play Series provides student performers the opportunity to collaborate with a director and a small cast to develop a fully-staged production for the public in the Dinah Lane Theater. Please note that this is an audition based program. Audition scheduling will begin on October 21. Registration will open to participants if they are cast in and accept a role in the production.
Please prepare a 1-2 minute contemporary monologue. You may also be asked to do a cold reading from the script. To reserve an audition slot, email production.wct@mosesianarts.org with your production resume and (optional) headshot or photo.
