This ensemble of senior
adults develops and presents original plays by and about senior citizens.
Ranging in age from 58 - 80, with both theatre veterans and newcomers, the
Senior Ensemble uses the universal medium of theatre to build bridges across the
ages. Ask about a free or low cost performance for your group or organization.
Young
Playwrights Program:
Support the playwrights of
the future! This unique program offers 12-week in-school writing residencies
in which students of all ages are taught the fundamentals of playwriting.
Through this professionally-led program taught by our teaching artists,
Horizon is providing these young artists with skills they need today in order
to become the Tony Kushners of tomorrow.
Students, middle school
through college, are invited to submit completed one-act plays for
consideration in the Horizon Theatre Company’s New South Young Playwrights
Festival Contest. The contest has three divisions: Middle School; High
School; and College. Twenty playwrights will be selected to participate in
the New South Young Playwrights Festival at the Horizon Theatre Company in the
trendy Little Five Points area of Atlanta. This weeklong festival will include
playwriting workshops, seminars, and rehearsals with professional theatre
actors, directors, and playwrights.
