This January BA (Hons) Acting for Stage and Screen students will be performing a collection of plays from 365 days by Suzan-Lori Parks at our Chruch Street Theatre.
On November 13, 2002, the incomparable Suzan-Lori Parks got an idea to write a play every day for a year. She began that very day, finishing one year later. The result is an extraordinary testament to artistic commitment. This collection of 365 impeccably crafted pieces, each with its own distinctive characters and dramatic power, is a complete work by an artist responding to her world, each and every day. The Northern School of Art BA (Hons) Acting for Stage & Screen present a collection of these plays with technical support from BA (Hons) Film, Tv & Theatre Production.
BA (Hons) Acting for Stage & Screen Lecturer Jonny Bussel said:
“365 Days/365 Plays is an amazing testament of the genius of Suzan-Lori Parks, one of the greatest American playwrights. She wrote a play a day for a whole year, each in a different style and with different themes. We have selected over 40 of these scenes that look at rolling out the red carpet, a man on death row, a couple on their anniversary and a man digging a hole. There will be songs and dancing, expect the unexpected in this theatrical extravaganza!”
Presented at The Northern School of Art Theatre, Church Square, Hartlepool, TS24 7EX
The productions will take to the stage on 14th and 15th January at 7pm, book your tickets here today!
