American Rep Theater of WNY presents two stage reading/concert evening performances of John Snodgrass’ 80’s techno-music inspired “Helen of Egypt” on May 8th at 7:30 and May 9th at 5 pm.
Hosted by the playwright, director Mariangela Mercurio and ART/WNY artistic director, Matthew LaChiusa, this immersive reading will feature an open forum where the playwright will introduce scenes and songs, the director will discuss ideas on staging and set throughout the presentation. Audiences will be encouraged to utilize the highly successful QR code to offer in the moment input and critique on songs, dialogue and the overall theatrical experience.
This survey will be shared with the playwright for positive feedback in developing the musical. Don’t miss out on an opportunity to be involved in the shaping of original works. Pay-what-you-can ticket pricing for both evenings.
