I took on the challenge of creating an immersive theatre approach with this production of ANTIGONE. Because of that decision, much courage was displayed through the process. Every person involved had to make a challenging and courageous decision in order for us to experiment with this approach and I am grateful that we made it this far – to the point where now you, the audience joins us to make theatre happen. Come along. Immerse yourself. Be challenged. Show courage.

Adelante con Valor! – Anamarie Dwyer

ADVISORY: This production will be performed “promenade” style, in which the audience generally stands and moves amidst the action. There is no formal “stage,” as the space is shared by the actors and audience. Audience members are encouraged to stand and position themselves to watch. Feel free to stand or sit on the risers and floor, except for the painted areas. Please allow the actors to move around the platforms and painted floor areas as acting space. Stool seats are available upon request, and ushers are available to help.
