Theatre Tillsonburg

Once again our summer programs at Theatre Tillsonburg presents continue with  our next Teen Theatre production!

How Teen Theatre works:

Two or more adult supervisors work with groups of talented teens in all aspects of putting on a production. They instruct in everything from Producing and Directing a play, acting, costumes, makeup, props, lighting and sound, every part of the production is managed by teens.

Open auditions start the process, just as in adult theatre and all of the elements come together at the end of August when Teen Theatre opens the doors to put on their performance for paying audiences. This program develops an appreciative understanding of theatre as an art form, provides opportunities for creative and interpretive expression and provides an excellent social atmosphere for youth.

This fun and exciting program has produced many of Theatre Tillsonburg’s memorable performances.

Clumsy Custard Horror Show and Ice Cream Clone Review

Follow us on Facebook.

This powerful adaptation, supported by a lyrical score, focuses the humor, warmth and emotional intensity of Katherine Paterson’s Newbery Award winning novel. Jesse, alienated from the pragmatism of his family and rural Virginia culture, draws and dreams of becoming something special. Leslie, the new girl from the city and the ultimate outsider, opens a world of imagination, art and literature for him. Together they create Terabithia, a fantasy kingdom where they are safe from those who don’t understand them. Their friendship grows as Jesse’s world expands. When tragedy strikes, the strength gained in Terabithia takes Jesse forward on his own and lets him share the magic of his dreams.
