This show will count as a NYC fundraiser for any students involved, as Hammond has agreed to split all profits with us.


Students cast should note that this production will have very limited rehearsals because of Antigone in Munich rehearsals. Rehearsal dates are currently planned for December 2nd-6th for 1 hour long "read throughs" but may change after the cast list is released. Rehearsals are mandatory because there will so few. However, scripts do not need to be memorized as the style of the play calls for actors to be on script. 

Additionally, students are required to provide their own transportation to and from Hammond Castle on the day of the performance.
