The SCS Committee on Ancient and Modern Performance (CAMP) seeks participants for its performance at the SCS/AIA Annual Meeting in San Francisco (January 6-9, 2016).
This year's play is ARISTOPHANES' NERDS: A Birds reformatted from Greek to Geek, adapted by Stanford Classics in Theater (SCIT) and directed by Lizzy Ten-Hove. After a condensed rehearsal schedule, the performance will be held on the meeting's opening night, Wednesday, January 6.
Meet Pete and Dick, two Wall Street suits fed up with finance after the 2008 economic crisis. They fly across the country to meet Tim Tereus, a former senator now living the good life in Silicon Valley, surrounded by nerds of every stripe. They hatch a disruptive idea: If the nerds seize control of the nation's data, the government will be forced to capitulate, and the nerds will have their revenge!
All interested parties are invited to send a brief theatrical resumé and/or any relevant experience and qualifications to Al Duncan at al.duncan@unc.edu at their earliest convenience.
