Out of all eight geographical regional Kennedy Center theatre festivals across the country, Albright’s Domino Players were chosen to receive an astounding nine national awards for their performance of “A Raisin in the Sun” last fall, including the Kennedy Center’s highest national honor — making it the troupe’s third national title since 2007.
“It was just surreal,” says cast member Sania Fontaine ’20, who won a distinguished performance award for her role as Beneatha Younger. “If you had asked me in my freshman year if I ever thought that would be my reality, I would have laughed. But, the cast of ‘Raisin’ connected on an amazing level, and because we did, we created a beautiful piece of art, and even more beautiful friendships.”
