a
more or less spontaneous production of the play by William Shakespeare
|
| A
DC-NewYork-Illinois-Williamsburg hybrid company gathers for an extreme theatrical
experiment. The challenge: Shakespeare’s The Two Noble Kinsmen without rehearsal. Thirty actors
will memorize their lines, and thrust themeselves into the action of
the play for a one-night only free public experiment. Under the guidance
of director Lise Bruneau, the actors will only meet the day-of to resolve
the most crucial details. Otherwise, the play will unfold as it is happening.
