1) PIGEONHOLED THEATER COMPANY
Offers Children’s After-School Acting Classes this Winter in new Sunset Park location
Pigeonholed, a nonprofit New York City-based theater company, announces the Winter 2020 Children’s Class Schedule, with classes in improvisation and story building, and scene study and acting technique. All classes are taught by professional actors and Interlochen Center for the Arts faculty and feature workshops with Broadway actors.
Classes will be held at Terry Knickerbocker Studio
68 34th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232
68 34th St, Brooklyn, NY 11232
Pigeonholed’s belief is that children learn and grow from doing. These classes were created from Pigeonholed founders, Justin Cimino and Sasha Lazare’s own professional experience as actors as well as their extensive experience as educators. They believe that combination is essential in creating an environment where students are challenged to mature as independent thinkers and to trust their individual creative instincts. Equally critical to their curriculum, over the course of the program students will also participate in a highly diverse set of group activities, which will be aimed at fostering a spirit of teamwork amongst all the participants. By the end of the program students can be both more self-assured and comfortable in front of a crowd, more intuitive and empathetic as artists, and will better understand how to channel their own creative impulses into productive work that the world needs to see.

Creating Your Own Character

Wednesdays, January 15- April 8
3:30-4:30pm
(Ages 4-7)
Wednesdays, January 15- April 8
3:30-4:30pm
This age range encompasses children at their most spectacularly imaginative. In this class, we encourage the students to use that imagination to create a world and character(s) all of their own. They will learn theatre games, improvisation, listening and communication skills, as well as how to devise an original play. Throughout the session, they will develop and build upon a fully formed character and story, which will culminate in an invited rehearsal where they will present their original, short play.

Pancake Day
Friday December 20, 7:00 PM
Saturday December 21, 7:00 PM
NOVEMBER THEATRE brings award-winning British playwright, Miriam Battye’s, (un)ordinary world to life. When Matty, a stranger, enters the intimate world of Ella and Zoe, what unfolds is a night of reality TV binge watching, role play, personal confessions, and two marriage proposals. As the girls work through a big life decision, the insecurities of all three are brought to a head as they go through a transformative evening of activities.
Pancake Day is a brilliantly funny, wonderfully delicate observation of what it means to be young and confused. With dance routines and physical play, the company launches Battye’s explosive dialogue off the page.
NOVEMBER THEATRE is a sizzling new theatre company championing transatlantic collaboration, energetic play, and female/gender non-binary narratives. Founded by two recent Barnard graduates, NOVEMBER THEATRE creates work that pours into the life of New York City. Following a series of staged readings, Pancake Day is the collective’s first full length show.

OKLAHOMA!
BROADWAY’S TONY AWARD®-WINNING REVIVAL
CELEBRATES SUSTAINABILITY AT THE DECEMBER
18TH PERFORMANCE
The groundbreaking, history-making Broadway revival of Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Oklahoma! is holding a Sustainability Night at the Wednesday evening, December 18th performance.
The evening will feature participation by sustainability programs including Sierra Club, Community Garden Coalition, Bronx River Alliance and the LES Ecology Center. There will be a post-show talkback with the Sierra Club and New York Magazine’s David Wallace Wells, author of “The Uninhabitable Earth.” Mr. Wells along with Carl Arnold and Monica Ibacache from the Sierra Club and cast members will discuss the presently unsustainable U.S. agricultural system, what a small but growing number of farmers are doing about it, and what audience members and the public can do about it.
Sustainability is most often defined as meeting the needs of the present without compromising the ability of future generations to meet theirs. It has three main pillars: economic, environmental and social. These three pillars are informally referred to as people, planet and profit.
Rodgers & Hammerstein’s Oklahoma! opened April 7th, 2019, at Broadway’s Circle in the Square Theatre (1633 Broadway). Tickets are now available through January 19, 2020 at the box office, www.telecharge.com or by calling (212) 239-6200.

December Panel Discussion
The Good Shepherds:
How Producers Guide
the Development of New Work
Thursday, December 19, 2019
Theater Resources Unlimited (TRU) presents the December Panel, The Good Shepherds: How Producers Guide the Development of New Work, on Thursday, December 19, 2019 at 7:30pm at Polaris North Theater, 245 W. 29th Street. E-mail TRUStaff1@
Bringing new works to New York is an expensive and risky proposition, and it is a good producer's job to make the development path as painless as possible for the creative artists and company. To sidestep premature exposure while a show is being worked on, current producing models now commonly partner commercial producers with a range of not-for-profit collaborators. A chief strategy is the enhancement deal, though there are other ways of working under the radar. Low-profile workshops are another possibility, though they cost way more than the designation "workshop" might suggest. In general, successful producers need to find a path of least resistance and greatest support for their production and their team. How do they do it?
Panelists to include TRU literary manager Cate Cammarata, director, producer (My Life Is a Musical, The Assignment, My Father's Daughter), R. Erin Craig of La Vie Productions (Austen's Pride: A New Musical of Pride and Prejudice, Mr. Rickey Calls A Meeting, Academy, Nonsense and Beauty, Chick Flick the Musical), entertainment attorney Lee Feldshon (Moulin Rouge, Drama Desk winner Desperate Measures, Who's Your Baghdaddy, Money Talks, Bloody, Bloody, Jessica Fletcher, Liberty), producer Ken Waissman (original Grease, Torch Song Trilogy, Agnes of God).
Doors open at 7:00pm for networking and refreshments, roundtable introductions of everyone in the room will start at 7:30pm - come prepared with your best half-minute summary of who you are, and what you need. Free for TRU members; $13.00 for non-members ($16 at the door). Please use the bright red reservation box on this page, or call at least a day in advance (or much sooner) for reservations: 833-506-5550, or e-mail TRUStaff1@gmail.com.

Conductor’s Notes Q&A 7 PM
Concert 8 PM
Seldom-heard music by four of Johann Sebastian Bach takes centerstage at this concert. Wilhelm Friedemann’s music is closest to his father’s, while Carl Philipp Emanuel’s is more imaginative and expressive. Johann Christian’s music, on the other hand, is closer to the classical style of Mozart, although his earliest works are remarkably similar to Emanuel’s. Johann Christoph Friedrich’s compositional style resembles those of both Emanuel and Christian.

Strictly 10-Week Limited Engagement
On Broadway At The Hayes Theater
GRAND HORIZONS is a strictly limited 10-week engagement on Broadway, beginning previews December 23, 2019 and officially opening on January 23, 2020 at The Hayes Theater (240 West 44th Street).
Bill and Nancy have spent fifty full years as husband and wife. They practically breathe in unison, and can anticipate each other's every sigh, snore and sneeze. But just as they settle comfortably into their new home in Grand Horizons, the unthinkable happens: Nancy suddenly wants out. As their two adult sons struggle to cope with the shocking news, they are forced to question everything they assumed about the people they thought they knew best. By turns funny, shocking and painfully honest, Bess Wohl's new play explores a family turned upside-down and takes an intimate look at the wild, unpredictable, and enduring nature of love.
