IRT's Westside Experiment 2021 | Come and explore a strange new planet with us!

Join the young writers and performers of Westside Experiment 2021 as they explore a strange new planet and learn how to face and overcome their fears! This piece was devised through ensemble exercises, monologue work, collaborative writing sessions and a lot of theater games! A collection of monologues, ensemble pieces and short scenes all take place on a mysterious planet where nothing is as it seems… the explorers will need to rely on each other and themselves to make it through their journey!PERFORMANCES:Sat.
