Got the Theatre Bug?
Youth Theatre Kicks Off the 2018-2019 Season
Come see a show!
We are excited to begin the 2018-2019 season with a fun stage production starring our Y’s Broad-Y actors between the ages of 7-10.
‘The Three Little Pigs’ Performs:
Saturday, OCT 20 7:00 – 8:30pm
Sunday, OCT 21 1:00 – 2:30pm
Mansfield Arts YMCA (40 Balcom St, Mansfield)
Tickets at the Door: $6 (students), $8 (adults)
The plot:
Three classic fairy tales (Three Little Pigs, Billy Goats Gruff, and Goldilocks) begin in their usual “once upon a time” fashion; however, this time things change on the way to “happily ever after” as our protagonists wonder what life would be like if they could change their story. Assisted by The Voice (struggling to narrate the changing stories) and three stagehands (desperately trying to juggle sets to keep the stories straight), the three trios join forces to rid themselves of their respective villains!
Our next performance, put up by Broad-Y Academy actors aged 11-14, is not to be missed.
‘Game of Tiaras’ Performs:
Saturday, NOV 3 7:00 – 9:00pm
Sunday, NOV 4 1:00 – 3:00pm
Jordan/Jackson Elementary School (255 East St, Mansfield)
Tickets at the Door: $10 (adults), $7 (children under 14; show is best suited for age 10+)
The plot:
When the aging king of a Magical Kingdom (England) decides to split his empire between his three daughters, Cinderella, Belle, and the Snow Queen (who in no way resembles a copyrighted character…), terrible tragedy ensues. Terrible, hilarious tragedy. Combining the gut-wrenching plot twists of Game of Thrones and the soul- numbing despair of Shakespearean tragedy, this play will leave you dying with laughter as the body count mounts. When you play the Game of Tiaras, you win, or you die.
The Hockomock Y Theatre Institute (high school aged) students will also be putting their skills to use in a show stopping musical theatre cabaret—featuring numbers from shows like A Chorus Line, Dear Evan Hansen, Chicago, and more!
‘Show Stopping’ Showcase:
Friday, NOV 30 7:00 – 9:00pm
North Attleborough High School (1 Wilson West Whitty Way)
Tickets at the Door: $10 (adults), $7 (students)
We believe that self-confidence and self-expression grows in students who participate in the performing arts. Please visit Mansfield Arts & Education website to learn more.
