“A Wrinkle in Time” opens Friday
BRATTLEBORO- New England Youth Theatre’s Junior Company invites audiences to their production of “A Wrinkle In Time” by Tracy Young, adapted from the novel by Madeleine L’Engle and directed by Katrina Spenceman and Julia Tadlock. The show will be performed at 7 pm on Friday and Saturday, March 8, 9, 15 and 16, and at 2 pm on Sunday, March 9 and 16 at NEYT, 100 Flat Street.
Audiences young and old are invited to revisit this classic story about one of literature’s most enduring young heroines, Meg Murry, who is once again joining 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.
Performed by young actors ages 9 to 12, this particular adaptation tells this story of adventure and discovery in a fresh, unexpected way, with special lighting effects and projections adding to the magical quality of the narrative. And, of course, in the end, audiences will know two things for sure: Love can overcome evil and there is such a thing as a tesseract. Tickets are $11 for adults, $10 for seniors, and $7 for students.
