KEEN TEENS Offers Students Opportunity To Help Produce Plays
The Drama Desk Award winning Keen Company, in a partnership with Playscripts, Inc. is proud
to announce the third season of KEEN TEENS.
Keen Teens is a unique opportunity for students interested in theatre to work with professional playwrights, directors, designers and technicians and produce the World Premiere of 3 short plays, written exclusively for Keen Teens, at Off-Broadway's Theatre Row Theatres.
We have commissioned three 30 minute plays that Playscripts will publish this spring and begin
to license out to high schools around the country for future productions. For our World Premiere productions, we audition high school students from across the city, who will learn how to put a play together as they work with professional artists.
Students who are cast in these new plays will participate in a 12-week rehearsal process beginning the week of March 2 and continuing once a week, every week after school. The plays will be performed at The Kirk Theatre for 5 performances on May 29 - May 31.
If you can get to midtown Manhattan during weekday afternoons and want to learn about how a professional production is created, than we want you. You must be in grades 9 -12, be available for the rehearsal process and be available the weekend of our performances.
