SUMMARY:Food for Groundlings: Richard II at the Glitterbox Theater | Friday 7pm
DESCRIPTION:Food for Groundlings: Richard II at the Glitterbox Theater\n“Here\, cousin\, seize the crown.”\n-Richard II \n1 crown\, 2 kings\, 3 nights only. Food for Groundlings brings to life Shakespeare’s most emotional and dangerous History. A play so censored it his lifetime that it ran Shakespeare and his players afoul of the Crown’s law- at risk of their lives. This prescient tragedy illuminates the abuse of power\, the cyclical nature of fortune\, and questions the “Divine Right” of Kings. \nJoin us as Food for Groundlings presents The Tragedy of Richard II\, Directed by Jonathan Heidenreich\, at the Glitterbox Theater in Homestead March 20-22nd. \nEstablished in 2011\, Food for Groundlings is an inclusive classical theatre company dedicated to the exposure\, exploration\, and revitalization of the works of William Shakespeare and other classical artists in the Pittsburgh region. \nWe operate with a deep commitment to justice and equity\, recognizing that diversity alone is not a sufficient goal. We reject tokenism and the perpetuation of unjust systems. Instead\, we center justice and equity as guiding principles in all aspects of our work. \nPerformances (at The Glitterbox Theater) \n– Friday\, March 20th\, 7pm \n– Saturday\, March 21st\, 7pm \n– Sunday\, March 22nd\, 2pm \n\nVenue Details\nGlitterbox Theater \n210 W 8th Ave\nWest Homestead\, Pennsylvania 15120 \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nRent the Space\n\n\n\n\nThe theater is available for rent for shows\, performances or rehearsals. Check out the venue info page if you have questions about size\, capacity\, layout or technical details of the space. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nGlitterbox Working Artist Program\n\n\n\n\nThe Glitterbox family is pleased to announce the launch of our Working Artist Program. This programs is specifically designed to reduce the cost of access to theater resources\, rehearsal space and other things that make performance hard to do. As a WAP participant you pay a monthly due\, but get priority calendar access\, free space usage\, and keep all the proceeds for the art you make. The WAP program is about flipping the non-profit artist funding model\, leaning into community as the center of supporting performers\, and collectively holding and using the resources to make work. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nVolunteer or Perform with the GBX!\n\n\n\n\nDear fellow lover of theatre and performance!\nAre you and actor\, director\, tech person or simply have an interest in getting involved and supporting local DIY art making? We keep a running list of folks that might want to help out or be involved in a production or show. Let us know what you are interested in! \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nDonate\n\n\n\n\nThe Glitterbox Theater is run by an all volunteer collective made up of artists and supporters. We strive to keep the venue as inexpensive as possible\, while still providing the resources for folks to put on amazing work. We believe we occupy a very unique place in the Pittsburgh theater and performance community. Please consider supporting us through a single or recurring donation.
