[KeyStoneChapter] May 4th Audio Description at the Wilma Theater

[Simon Bonenfant]

Good morning everyone,

At our chapter meeting last weekend, I spoke about a chapter outing going
to the Wilma Theater on Sunday May 4th at 2:00 PM for their audio described
play called Archduke.

Here is a description of the play. "Three boys – Gavrilo Princip, Trifko
Grabež, and Nedeljko Čabrinović – are recruited by a mysterious
organization with promises of glory, purpose, and a sandwich. Their
depraved Captain sends the boys on a mission he claims will restore order
and justice to their struggling nation and avenge the unfairness of their
terminal illness. Their assignment? Assassinate the heir to the
Austro-Hungarian empire, Archduke Franz Ferdinand, and his wife, Sophie.
Beloved playwright Rajiv Joseph (Describe the Night) returns to the Wilma
with a play that asks, what happens when a person feels like they have
nothing left to lose?  What methods are acceptable in the fight against
oppression? Led by the Wilma’s visionary Founding Artistic Director Blanka
Zizka (Heroes of the Fourth Turning, Kill Move Paradise), and featuring the
HotHouse Acting Company, Archduke offers audiences a humanized glimpse into
the catalyst of WWI.
This play contains haze, fog, flashing lights, loud sounds, misogynist
language, suicidal ideation, the staging of physical violence, limb
dislocation and explicit descriptions of homicide.
RUN TIME:
Act One: 1 hr
Intermission: 15 mins
Act Two: 50 mins

Total: 2 hours 5 mins."

has an Art-Reach access card, you can reserve tickets for three other
chapter members at the same price of 2 dollars per ticket.

After I receive all the information of who will attend, I will let the

Thank you
Simon
