After the afternoon matinee of the "The Task" at the Castillo Theatre on February 7th, there will be a CULTURE TALK on the production.
"Theatrical Experiments: Approaching Müller’s The Task”
Curtain: 4:30 p.m.
The public is invited to attend the event and engage in dialogue with the artists.
"I'm a sailor. I don't believe in politics. The world is different wherever you go." (The Task)
Or is it?
"Everywhere in our shrinking world, humanity wrestles with shared themes of love and betrayal, identity, obligations, and the consequences of our actions."
According to the creative team at the Castillo - these themes reverberate throughout their latest avant-garde production of Müller's - The Task - a play about a revolution called off.
The troupe (for the first-time ever an all-black cast) working in a variety of genres - avant garde, political, and black theatre - explore how artists may perform their way through shared concerns towards human development.
Karla Boos (Artistic Director of Pittsburgh’s experimental Quantum Theatre), Gabrielle L. Kurlander, (director of the Castillo’s current production of "The Task"), Charles Weldon (Artistic Director of the Negro Ensemble Company) and moderator Dan Friedman (Castillo’s dramaturg) will appear onstage to engage in a dicussion and interact with the audiencet.
A reception will follow.
The event is FREE!
