FNLO TOPIC: Activating the Audience in MACBETH with K.P. Powell and Lia WallaceTOPIC DETAILS: Join K.P. Powell, current ASC actor playing the title role in MACBETH, and ASC Education Programs Manager, Lia Wallace, as they discuss the powerful dynamic that exists between audience and actor at the Blackfriars Playhouse. With “universal lighting” in place (meaning the house lights stay on during the performance), characters in the play are able to make eye contact and speak directly to the audience. This unique performance style gives the audience a more active role in the storytelling. Join K.P. and Lia to discover first-hand all the methods ASC actors utilize to “activate the audience” to create a more visceral theatre-going experience unique to the Blackfriars.
TICKETS: $7 general admission, $5 students/teachers/Blackfriars Circle members
ABOUT FNLO: Looking for the perfect way to kick off a theatre-filled weekend in Staunton, VA? Head over to the Blackfriars Playhouse from 5-6 PM on Fridays during most show runs throughout the year to catch an engaging series of lectures, workshops, and panels presented on our beautiful stage.
Featuring renowned Shakespeare scholars, brilliant theatre industry experts, beloved ASC creative team members and staff, and knowledgable community partners, Friday Night Lights On events are designed to bring deeper context and meaning to the plays within our season.
FNLO functions as a perfect standalone outing to get your quick Playhouse fix or as a pre-show “appetizer” before enjoying the full meal that is an ASC production, either that same night or later in the weekend. The calendar of speakers and events will be updated throughout the year.
