JULY 25 & 26 SUMMER INTENSIVE WEEKEND
A Monster Calls
Young Connor struggles to come to terms with the imminent death of his mother from cancer. His turmoil calls forth a Yew-tree Monster who visits Connor in the dead of night. Four visits, four stories, four chances for Connor to face the truth. Middle-grade magical realism for students ages 10+, this piece is heavily physical full of movement and deep emotion. Watch our summer intensive students in this award-winning British play rarely performed in the U.S. 1 hour.
