| The Wolves by Sarah DeLappe. This gritty drama will be directed by Erin Downey. Left quad. Right quad. Lunge. A girls indoor soccer team warms up. From the safety of their suburban stretch circle, the team navigates big questions and wages tiny battles with all the vim and vigor of a pack of adolescent warriors. A portrait of life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness for nine American girls who just want to score some goals. “The Wolves” is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals on behalf of Samuel French, Inc. and plays April 28-30th at the Arts Academy of New Hampshire in Salem, NH | Buy Tickets |
| The first of two main stage musicals will be the cult-hit Be More Chill. This production will mark the directorial debut for the team of Matt Edlind and Rachel Nathan. In this internet sensation, Jeremy Heere is just an average teenager. That is, until he finds out about “The Squip,” a tiny supercomputer that promises to bring him everything he desires most: a date with Christine, an invite to the raddest party of the year and a chance to survive life in his suburban New Jersey high school. But is being the most popular guy in school worth the risk? Be More Chill is based on the novel by Ned Vizzini. BE MORE CHILL is presented by arrangement with Concord Theatricals. Be More Chill will play the Derry Opera House June 23-25th | Buy Tickets |
| The Lab sees CZT creating new and different sorts of theatre in a more experimental setting. Cue Zero artist Crystal Welch will be creating an original devised piece on empathy alongside Artistic Director Dan Pelletier, who will be creating a piece on cults and cult-like movements. These will be workshopped throughout the year and be performed in August.
More details to be made available in the near future. | Buy Tickets |
| Our final main stage production will be Stephen Sondheim’s dark true crime musical Assassins. Artistic director Dan Pelletier is elated to be once again working on a piece by his all time favorite theatre creator. Assassins lays bare the lives of nine individuals who assassinated or tried to assassinate the President of the United States, in a one-act historical “revusical” that explores the dark side of the American experience. From John Wilkes Booth to Lee Harvey Oswald, writers, Stephen Sondheim and John Weidman, bend the rules of time and space, taking us on a nightmarish roller coaster ride in which assassins and would-be assassins from different historical periods meet, interact and inspire each other to harrowing acts in the name of the American Dream. ASSASSINS is presented through special arrangement with Music Theatre International, and will play the Derry Opera House October October 27-29. | Buy Tickets |
