YOUNGSTOWN AREA COMMUNITY THEATRE ALLIANCE

"Our Town" Company

To Meet With Audience 

The Victorian Players, which is presenting the Thornton Wilder classic, “Our Town,” from September 10-26, will present a Downstage Dialogue on Saturday, September 18.  Everyone attending the show that night will be invited to stay following the performance for a discussion session with the cast and director.

     Downstage Dialogues, which are presented and hosted by the Youngstown Area Community Theatre Alliance, give the audience the opportunity to converse with the cast and director about the performance and the show.  It is a chance to learn more about “Our Town” and the specific production.  YACTA Special Events Chairman, J.E.Ballantyne, Jr. says that “these sessions can be especially valuable to school students.  Many schools study “Our Town” as part of their curriculum so it is a perfect opportunity for students to gain some insight into the play in addition to what they learn in the classroom.”

     No special reservations are needed for the Downstage Dialogue, however, since these have proven to be very popular in the past, it is suggested that you make reservations well ahead of that evening.  Victorian Players is located in the Little Theatre on the Commons at 702 Mahoning Avenue in Youngstown.  Reservations for all performances may be made by calling 330-746-5455.  Tickets are $10.00 for adults and $8.00 for students and seniors.  There are special group rates for groups of students and for larger adult groups.

     Our corporate production partner for “Our Town” is The Home Savings & Loan Company.
