What is the difference between
Page to Stage and 4 Scenes and a Cup of Tea?
The Page to Stage program is a delightful introduction to the world of Gaslight Community Theatre Productions! Four scenes (approximately 10 minutes in length each) written by local artists in a workshop instructed by legendary playwright Dan Needles are workshopped, lightly produced, and presented to the public as they enjoy a cup of tea! Page to Stage is the entire program from beginning to end, and 4 Scenes and a Cup of Tea is the name of the performance itself.
Page to Stage is the perfect opportunity to test the water and try writing and/or acting for the first time – or for experienced artists to brush up on their craft. It is a welcoming, accessible, fun and mentally stimulating environment! All skill levels are welcome! Memorization is not required.
Selected participants will experience the rehearsal process and participate in a dress rehearsal and two performances taking place on Sunday, April 16.
Join us as, in the words of playwright Dan Needles, we “get together and make something out of nothing, just for the fun of it”!
