New Hampshire Theatre Project to Host Adult Scene Study Intensive in June

New Hampshire Theatre Project's June 2016 Adult Scene Study Intensive will focus on training, technique and theme exploration. Participants will study three of the most influential British playwrights of our time: Tom Stoppard, Harold Pinter and Caryl Churchill. Each of these playwrights pushes boundaries in one-way or another. Together, we will bring their characters to life. A final "informance" will be scheduled at participants' discretion.
