That play you've always wanted to do.
Tue, 29 Sept 2009, 12:05 pmJust looking for people's own choices here: is there a play that you've always wanted to be involved with, but so far haven't done it? Maybe it's just too obscure or unpopular for anyone to put it on, maybe you've auditioned for it in the past but never got in, maybe you just haven't got around to staging it yet.
My pick is Shakespeare's Coriolanus - it's an awesome and, I think, deeply underrated tragedy.
What's your choice?

Doesn't exactly fit the criteria, as I had a small role in it as a youngster in QLD. Was my first taste of REAL theatre, and holds fond memories. I looked it up recently with a thought to directing it, but the cast is a bit large, and being relatively unknown, I think it would be difficult to cast.
It's a courtroom drama set in Tennessee in 1929ish, and based on the Scopes Monkey trial.
