BONFIRE: SPARKS
Ages 14-19
Saturday October 8th from 4-6:30pm at UHeights Auditorium
Sunday October 9th from 12-5pm at UHeights Auditorium
What kind of theatre is important to you? Over two days we’ll come together to develop and share new ideas through games, exercises, acting and playwriting. These sparks will fuel our work together this year. Create and collaborate with other young artists and spark your creative fires!
KINDLING: IN THE WINGS PLAYWRIGHT COHORT
Ages 14-19
Meetings: Thursday nights on Zoom
This cohort of playwrights will work together to provide feedback and motivate one another to continue writing. This will culminate in a “Chilled Reading” where playwrights can hear their work read by Penguin actors.
FALL PLAY: FROM KINDLING TO BONFIRE
Ages 14-19
Rehearsals: Monday/Wednesday from 6-8:30pm October 10-November 30 at University Congregational United Church of Christ (UCUCC)
Performances: December 3-4
Directed by Darby Sherwood
Come make a play by Penguins and for Penguins! Is there a character you’ve always wanted to play? A theme you want to explore? This project includes both collaborative devising and traditional rehearsal, designed to bring your ideas to life within a strong structure. Led by playwright Darby Sherwood, you’ll see your ideas come to life in a script written just for you, and perform in a fully realized production!
KEEP THE FIRE GOING
This fall, we’re focusing on how a play grows from the spark of an idea into a full performance. We will continue this exploration by producing some of the student work developed this fall in 2023!
