Co-Op Theatre East and Project Girl Performance Collective debuts Ten Years Later, a cutting-edge, ensemble-devised play, created by youth between the ages of 9 and 23. The young cast explores what it means to come of age in a post-9/11 society, living in the shadow of Twin Towers that most of them have never seen. 'My first view of the Manhattan skyline was without the towers,' said cast member Emily Rupp. 'When I first saw it, I tried to imagine what it could have looked like. It was like putting together a puzzle.' These youth grew-up in a world where terrorism, fundamentalism, orange alerts, airport security, subway sniffing dogs and tea party patriotism are the norm.
