The Let Out is a post-show paneled discussion on the Wilma stage, where audiences get a deeper dive on the themes of the play from artists, dramaturgs, and outside experts.
How do I attend? Entry is free to those who have a ticket to the production tied to the event.
What time does it begin? It will begin a few minutes after the 2pm performance, so you’ll have time to get a fresh cup of coffee!
Sunday, April 27 at 2pm
In Archduke, two 19-year old boys are played by women in their 40s, and two Serbians are played by black actors. In this Let Out, dramaturg Kellie Mecleary will speak with Suli Holum and Melanye Finister about the experience of performing age, gender, and race that differ from their own: what challenges and opportunities arise? How does the casting connect to the themes of the play: what happens when a play about masculinity has women playing men? What is revealed in the distance between actor and character? We will discuss all this and more!
Kellie Mecleary – Production Dramaturg & Wilma Associate Artistic Director
