CONFETTI STAGE ANNOUNCES



Bridge to Terabithia
by Katherine Paterson and Stephanie Tolan
Music by Steve Liebman



AUDITIONS ARE SCHEDULED
TOMORROW & WEDNESDAY - FEBRUARY  5th & 6th AT 6:30pm
The Women's Building ▪ 79 Central Avenue ▪ Albany NY 

  

SYNOPSIS:  Jesse, alienated from the pragmatism of his family and rural Virginia culture, draws and dreams of becoming something special.  Leslie, the new girl from the city and the ultimate outsider, opens a world of imagination, art, and literature for him.  Together they create Terabithia, a fantasy kingdom where they are safe from those who don't understand them.  Their friendship grows as Jesse's world expands.  When tragedy strikes, the strength gained in Terabithia takes Jesse forward on his own and lets him share the magic of his dreams.

REHEARSALS:  Begin February 17th at Confetti Stage @ The Women's Building, 79 Central Ave.  Schedules will be available at the audition.
Performances will be held April 4 - 13 at Confetti Stage @ Albany Masonic Hall, 67 Corning Place, Downtown Albany.
