Acorn Productions Opens 2nd Season of FAIRY TALE PLAYERS PRODUCTIONS, 11/5
Acorn Productions begins the second season of Fairy Tale Players at the company's Acorn Studio Theater at the Dana Warp Mill in Westbrook with an adaptation of The Three Billy Goats Gruff. The production is adapted and directed by Acorn's Director of Children's Programming, Keith Anctil, and features young performers who have been taking classes at Acorn over the past few years. 'Fairy Tale Players offers these talented youngsters a chance to take the next logical step in their development as actors,' says Acorn's Producing Director Michael Levine. 'Working on a fully-developed piece of theater allows them to complete the training process by applying what they have learnt in our classes to professionally-produced public performances.' The Fairy Tale Players presents classic fairy tales with a contemporary twist, adding modern references and tongue-in-cheek humor to create original adaptations that entertain family members of all ages. The Three Billy Goats Gruff will be performed 9 times between November 5 and 21, with tickets ranging from $5 for kids 12 and under to $7 for adults.
