Marie Antoinette:
A Virtual Reading
Marie Antoinette once delighted her subjects with three-foot-tall wigs and an extravagant wardrobe. Now, as France teeters on the brink of revolution, she is shocked to find them conspiring against her. As she ponders what went wrong, Marie is forced to confront what lies behind the façade. Eighteenth century extravagance meets contemporary culture in this hilarious reimagining that might cost someone their head.

Antigone
Written by Sophocles
Translated by Don Taylor
The war has ended. Antigone, daughter of Oedipus, learns her brothers are dead. Being forced into opposing sides of the civil war, they have killed each other in battle. When Creon, King of Thebes, grants the honor of a burial to one but not the other, Antigone must choose where her loyalties lie. This timeless tale burns with contemporary relevance, as old and young grapple over the future of their country.

Witch
Written by Jen Silverman
A charismatic devil arrives in the village of Edmonton to barter for the souls of its residents in exchange for their darkest wishes. Elizabeth should be his easiest target, having been labeled a “witch” and cast out by the town, but her soul is not so easily bought. A reimagining of the Jacobean drama, this sharp, humorous fable discusses how much our souls are worth when hope is hard to come by.
