Minor Character is latest digital theater from the Wilma, “which has perfected beautiful film-stage hybrids” (New York Times).
The Wilma Theater is thrilled to present the digital version of Minor Character, a joyful and music-filled comedic kaleidoscope. This streaming version of our zany remix of Uncle Vanya was filmed with four cameras in front of a live audience, and edited to give you the best views of the action!
A band of actors come together to perform a warm-hearted yet bittersweet look at love, longing, and the limitations of language.
The Philadelphia Inquirer gave Minor Character a RAVE review, calling it "a comic gem, an exploration of theater, play, reading, language — and storytelling and how it gets to us.”
