What Is Anonymous Theatre?
A play is selected. Auditions are held. The play is cast... secretly.
The identity of the cast is kept secret. Cast members do not know the identity of their fellow actors and do not reveal their participation in the project to anyone.
The actors rehearse one-on-one with the director. Then, on the night of the performance, the cast arrives in street clothes and enters the theatre as members of the audience. They take their seats, chat with their neighbors, and behave like normal audience members.
The house lights dim and the play begins, with each actor delivering his or her first line from the audience. All the cast members discover one another's identity for the first time on stage, in front of a live audience.
