Jeff will be directing the touring children's theatre production of LILLY'S PURPLE PLASTIC PURSE this Spring! Along with public performances on April 21-22 in the Performing Arts Theatre, we will be touring the show to local elementary schools, performing for hundreds of children.
The world premiere Theatre for Young Audiences play begins rehearsals at AVC with a stellar cast! Playwright Rick Creese has created a beautiful, funny play uses Aztec Mythology to teach children the value and power of sacrifice. Starting March 17, we will begin touring the productions to our local elementary schools.   Critically-acclaimed, award-winning playwright Rick Creese's brutally funny, brutally sad World Premiere play Millennium mixes elements of farce, the Absurd, and Old English verse to bring to life the story of the original Millennials. If you think life is tough for today's Millennials, take a look at the last time around. As the year CMXCIX A.D. rolls into year M, it is the end of the world as they know it. A lot of the credit goes to King Aethelred II (better known as the Unready), Canute (the Viking who replaced him on the throne) and Queen Emma (the ruthless queen who married them both).   Discover the humor and heartbreak of one of the world's greatest plays, revealed through the lyricism of Sarah Ruhl, two-time Pulitzer Prize nominated playwright of Eurydice and In The Next Room (The Vibrator Play). Times are changing, innocence is being lost, dreams and ambitions change throughout lifetimes. Three Sisters long to escape the dull suburban life they have been living, and yearn for the old life of Moscow - where they imagine their lives will be transformed and fulfilled. The eldest sister an "old maid" school teacher, the middle sister an unhappily married wife who has wandered outside her marriage, and the youngest sister an idealist: Three Sisters is the portrait of a family grappling with the bittersweet distance between reality and dreams set during the 1960’s.  |
