Mixed feelings about this post….
I have mixed feelings about making this post.
That said I should point out that the entire cast of Torn Out Theater’s production of Antigonick will be played by transgendered actors. All women parts will be played by trans women and all male parts will be played by trans men.
I realize that this will make some people uncomfortable, but the Sophocles’s play Antigone is itself about politics and gender roles, and the Anne Carson translation that the director is using is even more focused on these issues, this post modernist take on it is relevant.
Though if you are planning to make you dick happy and you have a problem with queer cultureyou might want to look somewhere else.
