Shade Tree Players: Conservatory Play (Ages 13-18)
One of literature’s most enduring young heroines, Meg Murry, is back — braces, stubbornness and all. Once again, she’s joining forces with Mrs Whatsit, Charles Wallace, Calvin O’Keefe and more to battle the forces of evil so she can rescue her father, save humanity and find herself. In the end, we know two things for sure: 1. Love CAN overcome evil and 2. There IS such a thing as a tesseract. Perfect for schools and theaters with larger casts, this faithful, ensemble-driven adaptation of the beloved novel masterfully retells the story in a fresh and enduring way.
Adapted by Morgan Gould
From the novel by Madeleine L'Engle
We’ve simplified our registration options. You can now complete all registrations at once (instead of separate transactions per child) and choose your audition time slot during the registration process.
Parent volunteerism is a crucial part of what makes Shade Tree Players summer productions successful. Not only it is an opportunity to be involved in and support your child’s growth in theatre, we cannot function without it.
We respectfully request that you choose to either commit to at least 3 hours of volunteering for your child’s production (5 hours maximum for multiple children) or pay $75 (maximum of $125 for multiple children) up front to “waive” your volunteer commitment. This fee will go toward hiring summer help to fulfill the jobs not filled by volunteers. Volunteer job opportunities will be announced at the parent meetings for each production.
