No Holds Barred: When Brooklyn Kids Take the Stage

I just got this invite in my inbox about “Off the Hook: Original Plays by Red Hook Kids” returns April 18-19 in Red
Hook

All of the enthusiasm, inventiveness, and
fearlessness that Brooklyn kids are capable of will be presented onstage
when six young playwrights perform their works alongside professional actors
in “Off the Hook: Original Plays by Red Hook Kids.” The performances will
take place Friday, April 18, at 7:00 p.m., and Saturday, April 19, at 3:00
p.m. in the auditorium of the Patrick Daly School (PS 15), 71 Sullivan
Street, in Red Hook, Brooklyn. Admission is free of charge.
“Off the Hook” will feature original plays written by six young
playwrights, age 10-16, who have completed a three-month workshop in
playwriting and theater arts. “The program catches the young playwrights at
a time when they’re becoming aware of the complicated world around them, but
they still bring a kid’s optimism and enthusiasm to the plays they create,”
says Reg Flowers, founder of Falconworks Artists Group and the creator of
Off the Hook. “They’re on the edge of adulthood, and their actions and
words show they are impatient to grow up, but there’s still an underlying
wide-eyed perspective and a belief in the impossible that comes through in
the plays they write. Almost anything might happen once the curtain goes
up.”
