The Favourite by Marie-Catherine Desjardins de Villedieu New translation by James Hyett In partnership with Hedgepig Ensemble Theatre's Expand the Canon series

Directed by LaKecia Harris Featuring Chad Bay, Amy Malcom, Stephanie Mattos, Jack Morsovillo, Koshie Mills, Ebby Offord, and Joshua Pennington   Written in 1664, The Favourite (Le Favori) is a French verse play about the transactional nature of relationships. It was the first play by a woman performed for King Louis XIV. Brimming with social commentary and humor, The Favourite invites obvious comparisons to the work of Molière and promises to be a delightful romp. Midsommer Flight is thrilled to partner with Brooklyn-based Hedgepig Ensemble Theatre to present a one-night-only staged reading of one of their selections on the 4th Annual Expand the Canon list, which was released in December 2023. Expand the Canon is a celebration of and a call to action to embrace excellent plays by a diverse set of historic women in the classics. Akin to The Kilroy’s List, this project engages professionals to review and select a more diverse range of classic plays. These carefully curated titles are timely, relevant, and producible. The list includes producing information, to make it easy for classical and regional companies to undertake these plays and give women the legacies they deserve. Nine plays are released each year.

Kokandy Book Club Presents WHO'S AFRAID OF VIRGINIA WOOLF Join The Understudy and our friends from Kokandy Productions for the latest installment of our series Book Club. Our July Book Club is raising a glass (several, in fact) to Edward Albee's Who's Afraid of Virginia Woolf? This scorching American classic inspires a fierce and fiery night as we sing, scream and clink-clink-clink along with George, Martha, Honey and Nick. Curated by Kokandy Producing Artistic Director Derek Van Barham, with musical accompaniment by Nick Sula, our book club performers will be announced soon!   Kokandy Book Club is an intimate salon series celebrating theatre, music and community. Each meeting will focus on a well known play—investigating the plot, themes and relevant tangents through a mix of musical theatre and pop/rock performance. Have a sit, have a sip and honor the ritual of talking about good plays and having a good ole fashion jam session. Doors open at 7 PM for a 7:30 PM performance. The Understudy Cafe will be open for refreshments.

Forget *seeing* a show. With this series you actually get to PLAY a role! Join us for a community exploration of some of our favorite work!

Part book club, part performance, part debate and part community healing, this year Refracted Theatre Company partners with locations across Chicago to offer Role Call, a community play exploration event coming a neighborhood near you!

At ROLE CALL, we bravely dive into a play by reading it cold, and then we engage in and practice the complicated conversations that often follow challenging art. This series is not a performed reading. That’s the best part – no preparation is necessary! All participants take part reading through the script together for the first time before we jump into a variety of activations and discussions based on our reading. It’s a space for everyone: actors, non-actors, theater lovers, ex-theater lovers, and especially the theater-curious. And this year, we're shaking it up a bit! Last year we met in the same space for each event but this year, we’re bringing the theatre to you! We’re excited to be partnering with various venues and hosts throughout the Chicago area to bring this accessible engagement into different neighborhoods to meet people where they are at. We’ll also be featuring some special guests, experts, and educators based on our location and the play/subject matter we explore. Part of the fun of Role Call is that it depends on the people who show up!  

All participants are given the chance to read throughout the course of the evening, helping to bring the play to life as everyone reads the play aloud together. It's low-stakes and no pressure, and nobody is forced to read.

This is followed by a series of questions, exercises, and discussions led by the Refracted team, in which the play's most divisive, nuanced questions are explored from a place of curiosity and empathy.

6:45 - doors open + drinks and snacks provided by Pizza Lobo

7:00 - casting begins

 

This event is BYOB! Please bring your own bevvy, and perhaps some to share! We'll provide some food and dishwares! This event it sponsored by Pizza Lobo!

 

A $10 suggested donation is encouraged, but not required! All are encouraged to attend (we will accept cash or Venmo at the event, or you can donate now at www.refractedco.com/donate)

About The Play:

Marian is visited by a Marian Apparition (just call her Mary, thanks) who tells them to write a play about the Blessed Virgin considering an abortion. Miryam is visited by the angel Gavri'el, who tells her she's to bear the son of God. And pomegranates keep fruiting up all around, asking them to choose.  

About The Playwright:

Katherine Gwynn (they/them) is a non-binary lesbian, CODA, and Chicago playwright who writes about the mythic and violent spaces between queerness, disability, and the divine.

Gwynn also won the 2015 Jane Chambers Student Playwriting Award and Second Place for the EMOS Ecodrama Playwrights festival 2022. Their work has been developed and produced by Flint Rep, Jackalope Theatre, The New Coordinates, The Great Plains Theatre Conference, the Terra Femina Collective, Commission Theatre, The Fishtank, and Rockhurst University. Gwynn has been a 2024 American Blues Blue Ink Award Semi-Finalist, a 2021 Eugene O'Neill National Playwrights Conference Finalist and 2x Semi Finalist, 2021 Playwrights Realm Scratchpad Series Finalist, a 2x Bay Area Playwrights Festival Finalist and 4x Semi-Finalist, a 2020 Parity Productions Commission Finalist, a 2020 Story Theatre Resident Playwright Semi-Finalist, a 2019 Princess Grace Playwriting Fellowship Semi-Finalist, a 2x Ashland Play Festival Semi-Finalist, a 2x New Works Festival at Kitchen Dog Theater Finalist, a 2019 LezPlay Finalist, and a 2x invited Submission for the Humana Festival of New American Plays.
