Pericles, prince of Tyre, is one of the suitors for the hand of the beautiful daughter of Antiochus, king of Antioch, who has told all suitors that they must correctly answer a riddle he gives to earn her hand; if they fail, they are executed. When the riddle is given, Pericles deciphers the shameful answer, but replies so that only the guilty father and his daughter may know that he has learned of their incestuous relationship. Fearing for his life, Pericles then hastens home. Still fearing Antiochus’s wrath will follow him, he puts to sea for parts unknown.
I served as the production assistant for Pericles. This production took place in the Engelstad Theatre which is their outside theater. The production assistant sort of served as a second ASM, but they did not help run backstage. I was in charge of line notes and script changes.
