(NETCONG, NJ) -- The Growing Stage presents A Wrinkle In Time from January 17-20. Based on the beloved novel by Madeleine L'Engle, this adaptation is by Tracy Young. Come see Meg joins 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.
A Wrinkle In Time is an all youth production featuring 26 young performers hailing from Hunterdon, Morris, Sussex and Warren counties. It is a full-length play, using dance and movement to help tell the story. The production is directed and choreographed by Jillian Petrie, TGS Teaching Artist and Company Choreographer.
This production is a part of the theatre's Studio Presentation Series, which was launched in the fall of 2009. The series has succeeded in engaging both patrons and artists. Targeted for specific-aged audiences rather than the wide-reaching family fare of the Main Stage, the series provides community artists with a unique opportunity to participate in the creative process of "trying out" new, more experimental works under the direction of the company's professional artists. This program allows the company to cultivate both new talent and challenge audiences.
Performances are January 17-20 - Thursday and Friday at 7:30pm; Saturday and Sunday at 4:00pm. Tickets $15 for Adults and $12 for Children & Seniors, with group rates available. Tickets can be purchased by calling the TGS Box Office at (973) 347-4946 or visiting www.growingstage.com.
The Growing Stage - The Children's Theatre of New Jersey performs in the Historic Palace Theatre, located at 7 Ledgewood Avenue in Netcong, New Jersey.
