Green Thumb TheatreOn Wednesday, October 19, Greenthumb Theatre will be performing the play, "Out in the Open", to our Gr. 8, 9 & 10 students. It is a play addressing the themes: safe schools, friendship and homophobia.
Out in the Open: "Adam convinces Stephen, his best friend, to go on a camping trip for the long weekend, even though Stephen can think of nothing worse that being cold, dirty and bored (not to mention the lack of indoor plumbing!) When the two boys get lost in the woods their lighthearted banter turns serious and Adam reveals a secret that he has been hiding from Stephen. How will Stephen React to Adam's news? What will this mean for their friendship? How do we deal with our own fears and issues when faced with a shift in what we thought we knew? Out in the Open is an honest look at homophobia, friendship, social pressure and navigating the complicated truths of teenage relationships."
Look forward to seeing you there!
