Experience The Newbery Award-Winning Story THE GIVER At DreamWrights
by BWW News Desk - February 20, 2018
DreamWrights Center for Community Arts will stage a live production of Newbery Award-winning story, The Giver. Adapted by Eric Coble from the novel by Lois Lowry, the performance promises to be less of a show and more of an experience. Guest Director, Philip Rooney explains, "We've placed the audience right at the center of the action and at times they may feel like they're playing a participatory role in the community of the play. Many important moments in the play are not the action itself, but rather distant memories of history which the audience will get to experience along with the main character, Jonas."
