Ride the wave! Old stories, retold for a new generation
Welcome to the E.C. Glass Theatre 2024-25 Season! Our mission is to develop hard working, talented and empathetic kids who produce outstanding theatre for our community. Here is our 2024-25 season lineup:
Autumn One Acts performed in The Alumni Studio Theatre
October 17-19
“Our Place” by Terry Gabbard
We all have that place - a spot rich with memory or discovery. In 5 vignettes, characters from different walks of life encounter life changing moments in the same secret location. Poignant, funny, relatable. This show will also travel to Richmond to represent E.C. Glass at the 2024 VTA state theatre conference.
“The Greek Mythology: Olympiaganza” by Don Zolidis
Join two battling narrators as they attempt to cover all of ancient Greek Mythology - with a little help from the audience. A fresh spin on some very old tales! Fast-paced, wild, silly and fun for all ages.
“Peter Pan And Wendy” by Lauren Gunderson, J.M.Barrie. E.C. Glass Auditorium
January 31-February 2, February 7-9
“A sensational reimagining for a new generation ... .Sweet and saucy….a story that appeals to every age.” The Washington Post
Lauren Gunderson (a Glass Theatre favorite and author of “Silent Sky”) has written a fresh take on this timeless classic! Straight from a smashing Washington D.C debut, this family favorite is seen through Wendy’s eyes as she chases adventure among the stars, facing down fairies, mermaids, and that dastardly Captain Hook. Together, Tiger Lily, Wendy, Peter, Tink and the Lost Boys discover the power of standing for what is right. Join Glass Theatre for this refreshing, bright and charming new story!
New Works Festival performed in The Alumni Studio Theatre
March 27-28
Senior students take the helm to direct student written, and published short plays. A Glass Theatre tradition and a well - earned rite of passage. Seats are packed with students and families!
“Footloose” in the E.C. Glass Auditorium
Adapted by DEAN PITCHFORD & WALTER BOBBIE, Music by TOM SNOW, DEAN PITCHFORD
May 1-2, 8-10
When Ren and his mom move to a small, repressed farm town, they find the local preacher has placed a strict ban on dancing for the kids in town. In the face of harsh judgment, Ren and his friends decide to fight for their freedom to dance. This heartfelt story explores a father’s grief for the son he lost, a boy’s yearning for the dad he didn’t have, and the universal need to break free from pressures and dance! Join EC Glass students for this FUN, FRESH, ENERGETIC take on this Award-winning Broadway classic featuring top 80s music by icons Tom Snow, Dean Pitchford, Eric Carmen, Sammy Hagar and Kenny Loggins. Featuring live music played by the EC Glass Band.
