A short note to let out non-theatre classmates know about a rare performance treat after our next class:

On Thursday, October 4 @ 5:00 pm in the Studio Theatre, Henry Woronicz will present An Iliad, a new one-man show by By Denis O’Hare and Lisa Peterson, based on Robert Fagles translation of Homer.

Henry just completed a successful run of the show at the La Jolla Playhouse, and it will be transferring to the Berkeley Rep in October. While we will obviously not have all the trappings of the original production in our studio, it will be an opportunity to see an outstanding performance by a wonderful actor that grapples with many of the ideas about theatre as narrative vs embodied experience that we talked about earlier in the class.
