Online Youth Classes at The Theater Project

“Monster Got Your Back” Radio Play – AGES 9-12

This online class will be held on Zoom and use other online platforms to create a radio play! TTP alum Audrey Burns will use theater games, warm-ups and acting basics to bring to life the script “Monster Got Your Back” written by Putnam Smith.

SATURDAYS JANUARY 29th – MARCH 12th, 10:00 AM- 11:00 AM

Synopsis:

Meet Zeeta, her younger brother Wolf, and her cousin Wren— just a few kids trying to enjoy a hot summer day on the beach. There are rumors circulating, however, about the legend of a monster who lives in the caves at the far end of the be

ach. Rumors, of course, often prove to be untrue. In this case, as our friends are about to discover, the truth turns out to be a little more complicated than separating fact from fiction, the natural from the supernatural. The truth about the reality of monsters turns out to be a lot closer to home.
