A collaboration between Acting for Young People, Mason Community Arts Academy, and Precipice Theater Team

​

The Precipice Theater Team (PTT) will work with students to craft a dynamic, one-of-a-kind, play using students’ own words, thoughts, and experiences. In this intensive, PTT’s theater professionals will guide students through their internationally celebrated devising process to create autobiographical, ensemble-based theater that poses significant questions crucial to the participants and their communities. Through writing, movement, rehearsals, and performance, students will collaborate to bring their stories to life, in an environment infused with generosity, creativity, and excitement. 

​

Ideal for students in grades six through high school sophomores, the program will culminate in a fully realized and polished performance, which will be shared with family and friends on Sunday, May 4 in the Fairfax Spotlight on the Arts Festival, including a talk-back with the audience. In addition, there will be another performance of the play on Sunday, May 25, at the George Washington Masonic Memorial as part of a Precipice Theater Team devised theater festival.
