Chaos Theatre (New for 2027)

One show…

​

An entire cast and crew…

​

Zero in-person rehearsals…

​

What could go wrong? 

 

CHAOS THEATRE:

Are you a self-motivated thespian that lives for the chaos? Are you the person your cast and crew (maybe even director) looks to when things go wrong? Do you love a challenge? Then this might be for you! Check out our brand-new program, NJ Thespians All-State Chaos Theatre! 

 

Led by Mrs. Jessica Huch & Mrs. Victoria Korey

 

This is a new project, inspired by Anonymous Theatre Company!

 

“Auditions are held... in secret. The play is cast... in secret. Cast members rehearse the show one-on-one with the director... secretly... and do not learn the identity of the other cast members. On the night of the performance, the actors arrive in street clothes and enter the theatre as if they are members of the audience. They take their seats. They read their programs. They chat with their neighbors. The house lights dim and the play begins... with each actor delivering his or her first line from their seat. The audience gets to see the story happen as if it is happening for the first time... because it actually is happening for the first time.” https://www.anonymoustheatre.org/what-we-do

 

While our process may look slightly different, the concept is the same. If you are cast, you are expected to keep your participation a secret. Rehearsals will take place virtually. On Saturday night of the festival, you will pick up your microphones, have a seat with your troupe, and start the show! 

​

This year's show is Into the Woods, JR.
