Based on Cartoon Network’s animated television series created by André Benjamin and Tommy Lynch and adapted and directed by Rosemary Newcott, Class of 3000 Live will be performed from March 6 to March 29, 2009.
The show will be produced in association with Cartoon Network, Moxie and
Thomas Lynch Productions.
For the first time ever on stage, experience the wildly original hit animated series as it leaves the small screen and jumps full throttle onto the stage at the Alliance. Andre Benjamin (OutKast’s André 3000) developed this story of an international music star who flees his own celebrity to return to Atlanta. But new musical inspiration is just around the corner when he’s discovered by a group of young musical prodigies at a performing arts middle school – in a desperate search for a music teacher. Class of 3000 Live is a hometown Atlanta original, harnessing the power of self-expression to inspire all ages to live their dreams.
The box office is open Monday - Friday from 10 am to 8 pm and Saturday - Sunday 12 pm to 8 pm. For more information call the box office at: 404.733.5000.
Now in its 40th season, Atlanta’s nationally acclaimed
ALLIANCE THEATRE, recipient of the 2007 Regional Theatre Tony Award®, is the leading professional resident theatre of the Southeast, creating the powerful experience of shared theatre for diverse people on two stages for youth and adult audiences. Under the leadership of Artistic Director Susan V. Booth and Managing Director Thomas Pechar, the
ALLIANCE THEATRE is a national theatre with a local address, reaching out annually to almost 200,000 patrons and members of the community. Known for its high artistic standards and national role in creating significant theatrical works, the Alliance launched three Tony Award-winning hits to Broadway:
Alice Walker’s The Color Purple,
Elton John and
Tim Rice’s Aida and
Alfred Uhry’s The Last Night of Ballyhoo. And, in a rare event for a regional theatre, it originated the national tour of the Tony Award-winning Broadway musical The 25th Annual Putnam County Spelling Bee. The theatre has premiered more than 50 works including adaptations of
Carson McCullers’ The Heart is a Lonely Hunter and
Pearl Cleage’s Blues for an Alabama Sky. Further evidence of the Alliance’s commitment to new work is found in its nationally recognized Kendeda Graduate Playwriting Competition, a cutting-edge program introducing student playwrights to professional networks while producing the world premiere of the winning student’s work. The
ALLIANCE THEATRE also offers extensive education and outreach programs such as the Institute for Educators and the Collision Project for high school students. The Alliance continuously brings Atlanta the finest talent and finest art—proving once again that the Alliance is where great theatre lives.
The
ALLIANCE THEATRE is a division of the Woodruff Arts Center in Atlanta, Georgia, which also includes the Atlanta Symphony Orchestra, High Museum of Art, Young Audiences and the 14th Street Playhouse.
