Join us for a workshop production of Autumn Garden by Lillian Hellman. First
produced in 1951, the play is Hellman's most mature and emotionally honest
play, with a rich cast of imperfect yet noble characters struggling to find
comfort amidst the simple tragedy of being human. In this introspective and
rarely produced play, old friends gather in a summer home to rediscover
connections, rekindle lost relationships and find peace, only to find they
can't escape from the choices of their past. Making theatre is often a
challenging process and acting calls for an unusual degree of human
vulnerability and brokenness, because plays are often about vulnerable and
broken human beings. In this workshop production, advanced actors will work on
rehearsal techniques using minimal set pieces, props and rehearsal costumes.
We invite you to come and watch theatre at its very core -- the actor and the
text.
