ON STAGE NEXT:
• What Do You Do With An Idea? – APR. 8 – MAY 8, 2022
(LIMITED AVAILABILITY for weekday matinees.)
Trek through the journey of an idea!
Our idea was to create a new musical based on this award-winning book and this spring, our idea will unfurl on our main stage. “What do you do with an idea?” the child asks, and at first, it seems the best thing to do is ignore it. But, it won’t be ignored, so he nurtures it. And then, despite doubt and fear, his idea grows and grows, until one day the answer becomes abundantly clear.
• All American Boys – APR. 29 – MAY 22, 2022
NOTE: Recommended for ages 10+. Strong Language & Violence will be depicted.
(Talkbacks and other support is available at select performances. Please request when making a reservation.)
The journey of two teen boys and a life-altering incident
Twin Cities Premiere!
The lives of two high-school boys, one black and one white, powerfully intersect after a violent act of racially motivated police brutality. Unfolding through the boys’ alternating perspectives, the story follows their journey as they grapple with the devastating impact of racism as it reverberates through their families, school and town. Stages Theatre Company and Capri Theater are proud to bring this important play, based on the award-winning book by Brendan Kiely and National Book Award winner and Ambassador of Children’s Literature, Jason Reynolds, to Twin Cities audiences.
