The plot concerns two mismatched roommates– one divorced and one estranged and neither quite sure why their marriages fell apart – move in together to save money for alimony and suddenly discover they’re having the same conflicts and fights they had in their marriages.

The Somewhat True Tale of Robin Hood
Rising Stars - Youth

A frantically funny, Monty Pythonesque retelling of the classic tale of Robin Hood. This time around, the legendary legend, in his never-ending quest to aid the needy, encounters a lovely damsel-in-distress; an ever-scheming sheriff who would rather bowl a strike than hit a bull's-eye; a gold-hoarding, bad-guy monarch wannabe; and a good-natured "Town's Guy" who manages to make his way into every scene, whether he belongs there or not. Combine them and you've got an irreverent jaunt through Sherwood Forest you won't soon forget!

AUDITIONS: March 2024. Open to 6th - 8th grade students.

​

Performances: May 10-18, 2024 

TRAINING:
Speakeasy Shakespeare

We love a good alliteration, and if you have always wanted to read, speak, and perform like the bard intended, then sign up for the Speakeasy Shakespeare classes.  

​

We are partnering with David Connolly & Classique Theatre Company (CTC) to do weekly classes on how to dig into and perform the works of William Shakespeare. Mastering text analysis, scansion, movement, stage combat, voice, and comedy allows the actor to perform in any style; film or theatre. This will be a hands-on, scene-based, modern approach to acting and performance.

Classes will be $10 per drop-in class payable to CTC, and will meet at a downtown Ellensburg location. Let us know your interest and we will pass your info along to the instructor and let you know where our "speakeasy" location is!

When: Weekly starting in March
