Theatre Adventures Beckon!

That's right, our new school year together begins on Wednesday, September 9, and Thursday, September 10! We will bring stories to life, have ample opportunities to express our creativity, spend time with theater friends, and stretch ourselves as we learn new theater skills.

Reserve your spot in the Wednesday or Thursday Troupe by August 17!

This coming school year, the Wednesday Troupe will stage the Rudyard Kipling Just SoStory, "The Elephant's Child" (Or, “How the Elephant Got Its Trunk"), on May 12, 13, and 14, 2027. Rudyard Kipling's language is so rhythmical; his story is a delight.

We look forward to exploring identity, individuality, and the discovery of new abilities in The Elephant's Child.

The Thursday Troupe will be performing a simplified version of Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream on November  4, 5, and 6, 2026.

Three actors in decorative crowns and Shakespearean costumes perform on a stage with scenic rocks, a painted forest behind them. We can see some audience members in silhouette sitting in the foreground of the image.

We last produced Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream in April 2017. As we did then, we will explore Shakespeare's rhythmic language and his range of many characters---comic, serious, "lovelorn," and more. Some Thursday Troupe members might want to reprise the same character they played ten years ago, or they might choose a new one. We will examine all possibilities when we meet on September 10.

The Traveling Troupe had a busy 2025-26 School year that included a residency at the Dummerston School and a trip to St. Albans, presenting at the Creative Sector Convening conference sponsored by Vermont Arts Council. The Traveling Troupe is looking forward to what this new school year will bring. Some gigs are booked, and we welcome more. For Bookings: laura@theatreadventure.org.

“Theatre Adventure was such a gift to our school community--the energy, insight, and creativity you and the troupe members brought was contagious and opened up our students for exploration, courageous leadership, and expression.” —Julianne Eagan, Dummerston School Principal.
