Studio- Tragedians Anonymous

Tragedians Anonymous

Directed by Janelle Downey

Forced to remain in isolation until further notice, four tragic Shakespearean characters make time to join a self-help group, virtually of course! Tragic characters Ophelia, Lady Anne, Romeo, and Juliet seek support at the Tragedians Anonymous group led by Prospero, where the meeting’s theme is, “Identify those who wrong us and those who we wrong.” In this smart, laugh-out-loud comedy that’s also quite educational, the characters proceed to confront the other characters in their plays. They’re also forced to face their personified Fatal Flaws!

This is a virtual production with rehearsals happening once a week on zoom. The final week will be a recording week where the director will guide and record students performing their roles. Then, the final the videos will be professionally edited together to create the final product. As the “performance,” Starting Arts will host a virtual watch party so students can invite friends and family (from anywhere!) to see their talent and hard work on film.
