30–Hour Play Project:
All I Really Need to Know I Learned by Being in a Bad Play
by Werner Trieschmann

This is a first for Junior Theatre! The students in this play will arrive to rehearsal memorized, and in the course of a single 30-hour period, we'll put up a show! We're very excited about this kind of intensive rehearsal process. Guided by a staff of professionals, the students will rehearse their parts, build a set, make costumes, and perform a fully-realized show!
