Oddfellows Playhouse is holding auditions for Thorton Wilder’s classic play Our Town on Jan. 24 and 25 for teens in grades nine and up.
The Teen Repertory Company is a unique opportunity for adventurous, committed teenagers to experience cutting-edge theater in a supportive, challenging, and noncompetitive environment. The Company takes on mature, thought-provoking material—classic and modern—with bold energy and high artistic standards. A diverse collection of young people from throughout central Connecticut, supported by professional directors and designers, combine to create a season that you won't find in many high schools.
Our Town, directed by Missy Burmeister, is a classic, award winning show where the Stage Manager takes you on a journey through the life of a small New England town. Set in the early twentieth century, Our Town is famed for daring both the actors and audience to interact in order to weave the themes of family, marriage, death, and eternity into the story of what was daily life.
