Play for Middle Schoolers at the Alliance

The Alliance is excited to announce our upcoming production developed for middle school students based on their experiences and the stories of Grimm’s Fairytales.  THE GRIMM LIVES OF THE INBETWEENS is a fairytale-middle school mash up of knights on bicycles, princesses with braces, bullies and jocks, and so much more. Using digital storytelling, interactive theatre techniques, and quirky renditions of classic tales, this show will bring to life a contemporary Middle School experience from the students’ point of view.

The Alliance is also thrilled to be a part of the City of Atlanta’s Office of Cultural Affair’s “Cultural Experience Project.”  The Cultural Experience Project was launched to afford every Atlanta Public School (APS) student from pre-kindergarten through 12th grade the opportunity to experience the city’s premier art and cultural venues. Through the CEP, all sixth graders in APS will have the opportunity to see THE GRIMM LIVES OF THE INBETWEENS – making it one of the only cultural experiences offered by the program that is developed specifically for students in their age category. 

There are only two public performances of this show, so get your tickets soon!  Performances are Monday, October 28, 7:00pm, and Monday, November 4, 7:00pm.  The Official Opening Performance is October 28, 7:00pm.  Adult tickets are $20 and children tickets are $15. Tickets are available online at www.alliancetheatre.org/grimmlives or by calling 404.733.5000.
