Albuquerque Little Theatre’s Family Series... Providing meaningful theatrical experiences for people of all ages. The tradition of Theatre for Young Audiences began at Albuquerque Little Theatre as early as 1944, when founding director Kathryn Kennedy O’Connor mounted a musical production of The Prince and the Pauper. Years later, The Albuquerque Children's Theatre (ACT), founded by Bill Hayden in 1962, under the direction of Sue Ann Gunn, found a permanent home at the Little Theatre in January 2002. The Family Theatre Series directed by Jonathan Dunski remains dedicated to continuing ACT's original mission of: “Producing quality theatre by, for and with children.” Each season, the Family Series presents at least three prominent plays. These plays are drawn from both classic tales and contemporary literature, written by the foremost playwrights who craft Theatre for Youth. Past productions have included: James and the Giant Peach, The Velveteen Rabbit, There’s a Boy in the Girls’ Bathroom, and Free to Be You and Me. The artistic agenda aims to offer challenging stories with family-friendly themes, performed by multigenerational companies. Study guides are provided for parents and teachers to extend and deepen the theatrical experience. The Family Series productions are enhanced by the variety educational programs at ALT. Through workshops for children, youth and adults, the power of theatre is used to engage the imagination and to develop the skills of cooperation, critical thinking and self-confidence. The experiences gained in the Play Actors (ages 3-7), Junior Actors (ages 7-12) and Teen Actors (ages 13-17) workshops are not necessarily geared to train future actors, rather they encourage the development of confident young people who understand the value of working together to achieve success. Theatre Lab (ages 13-17) is a unique opportunity for teens to learn the fundamentals of all the tasks involved in putting on a play. Opportunities for adults to learn the craft include acting workshops and behind-the-scenes discussions with ALT artists. This fall we will launch Young Scripts Workshop, an opportunity for playwrights of Theatre for Young Audiences to have their scripts performed in studio-also a great opportunity for directors and actors to practice their crafts. Ultimately, the Family Series celebrates the creative spirit in everyone, young and old alike. In producing superior quality, affordable theatre for families, we endeavor to create your most memorable theatrical experiences.
