Duplicity Ensemble seeks actor/creators of all ages/types/ethnicities for its second season of original works.

After a hugely successful successful inaugural season, Duplicity Ensemble is moving forward with another exciting line-up of original productions. Season 2 is heavily focused on the family unit and how those intrinsic ties can be both comforting and restraining. We have two original musicals and one Shakespeare mash-up lined up for this truly thrilling season.

The upcoming season includes:

A Midwinter Night's Tale
Created by Duplicity Ensemble
A modern Shakespeare mash-up of A Midsummer Night's Dream and The Winter's Tale. Combining contemporary language with Shakespeare's verse, this play explores forgiveness, redemption, and the power of family. A perfect play for a cold Chicago winter.
Rehearsals: December - February (with a week off for Christmas)
Performances: February/March

Granite (working title)

Still in development, this original musical follows the story of a young woman discovering her family's history.

Edna Flint (working title)
Written by Ensemble member and Resident Playwright Anne Walaszek
