When Peter Martino was given the opportunity to lead the theater department at Solebury, he felt as if the current 程序—along with the theater world in general—was at a crossroads. 他想把这个节目搬到现代戏剧舞台上. “Being a firm believer that students are more likely to succeed when they are more invested in the material they are working with, I wanted to grant 我们的 students a bit more autonomy and ownership of the 程序,彼得解释道. “ I also wanted to focus on the fact that theater is more than just one person. 不仅仅是导演、剧作家或主演. It's everyone's collective involvement that leads to the success of the project. 我不希望这样 my 我想要的程序 我们的 程序.”
考虑到这一点, The 韦德娱乐app下载地址剧团 was created to cultivate inspiration and collaboration in the theater arts for artists, 表演者, 和技术人员. 通过戏剧体验的变革潜力, STC creates an atmosphere of equity and inclusivity for the Solebury community in the theatrical experience, including 我们的 audiences and those who have yet to find a home in the performing arts.
Peter's hope for this 程序 is that it will be in a constant state of 成长th and change, 世界就是这样. Things that seem very important one moment can no longer resonate in the next. “The goal is to have 我们的 finger on the pulse of what is new and upcoming in the world of not only just educational theater but theater as a whole. Theater that resonates the most with people is theater that is relevant, or at least we can make relevant to contemporary issues and themes. 而这可以体现在我们春天的生产中 可怕的婴儿 will be— something more avante-garde and experimental—it can also look like 哈维, where we can take a classic piece of theater and approach it with a contemporary lens.”
The goal of The 韦德娱乐app下载地址剧团 is to allow students of all experience levels and disciplines to be able to take part in the theater process. 来自Coffee House, 闹鬼的森林, 适合所有技能水平的课程, t我们的ing children's theater productions (they are hoping to start next year), 学生展示, 全尺寸生产, 彼得和提多(奥尼尔), Solebury’s Tech Director) want to give students an outlet to perform and find a love for the performing arts. “It's been incredible to see students gravitate towards the 程序 who have been at Solebury for years and are now deciding they want to give it a shot and then having a blast. 看到学生们在笑, 微笑, and feeling like the stars they are have truly made this year a complete success already.”

Students in 我们的 Lighting Design class each designed one of the songs in Chicago, 他们的工作确实令人印象深刻. They worked tirelessly to make their piece the best that they could, and the end result was on par with many professionals in the industry.”
