TEEN REPERTORY COMPANY
|
The Seagull by Anton Checkhov Adapted by Christopher Hampton Directed By: Jeanie Kanaley Anton Checkov's classic is a true reflection of what it is to be human and to be entrapped in a society infatuated with celebrity as opposed to authenticity. The Seagull also explores the conflicts of the New Generation vs the Establishment; and innocent love contrasting with unrequited love. These compelling themes make The Seagull an exceptionally exciting experience for young actors. -------------------------------- #playbythelake/Bthere2nite: The Seagull by Anton Checkov #Ninaiscool: Ya gotta love a love story #funnyandhot: The play is full of humor and heartbreak #fastfun: Best is the energy & action from start to finish #getreal: Fame destroys #newideasrock: Passion & purpose rule #thestupidbird: It flies #obsessed with fame: It pops Teen Repertory Company is open to anyone from ages 14-20 (must be in at least 9th grade).

SPRING 2019 HIGHLIGHTS
The Teen Rep show this spring was an original, ensemble-created piece which was built from a series of workshops that Oddfellows held this winter under the title "This Is Important". The participants (ages 14 - 19) worked with Connecticut State Troubadour Nekita Waller and Playhouse Artistic Director Dic Wheeler over five weeks to generate performance material around the issues that the participants felt were most important to themselves and to our culture/world. There was writing, group brainstorming, interviewing, scene-making, movement, dance, singing and songwriting. Nekita and Dic, along with collaborators Cecilia Kurachi Ubé and Bryan Titus developed that raw material into a new play with music which was performed in May by the Teen Repertory Company.
All events take place at Oddfellows Playhouse, 128 Washington Street, Middletown.
