BRAINSTORM
October 26 - 28, 2023
Inside every adolescent brain, 86 billion neurons connect and collide to produce the most frustrating, chaotic, and exhilarating changes that happen to human bodies. BRAINSTORM is a theatrical investigation into how teenager's brains work, and why they're designed by evolution the way they are. Created in collaboration with neuroscientists Professor Sarah-Jayne Blakemore and Dr. Kate Mills, the play is a blueprint for a company of teenagers to create and perform by drawing directly on their personal experiences.
Inspired by the twisted genius of Roald Dahl, the Tony Award-winning Matilda The Musical revels in the anarchy of childhood, the power of imagination, and the inspiring story of a girl who becomes the author of her own story. Matilda exists in a liminal space between childhood and adulthood--one that comes with its own superpowers--and asks us to consider: what does it mean to be a grown up, and be a good one?
Each year, Beacon Academy students grow in their leadership skills and apply to write, direct, and/or design one-act plays in our spring festival. We hope you’ll join us for a night of brand new world premiere plays from our community!
