<p>As a fun subject, I thought maybe we could do something similar to the MT Forum. D found out the mainstage schedule at her school this year, and also some student-run production tidbits. I find it fascinating to see what is going on - and up! Also this might be helpful for kids considering any of these schools. We could start a list and add to it as things evolve. </p>
<p>Adelphi University:
Mainstage - Eurydice (Anouilh); Hamlet (First Quarto); Suburbia (Bogosian); Who Will Carry the Word (Delbo); and Little Shop of Horrors (Mencken/Ashman).

<p>“Boeing Boeing” and “Lost in Yonkers” will be done in cooperation with Atlantic Stage, the small, professional, equity house located in North Myrtle Beach.</p>
<p>The student directed productions are not set, but I’m pretty sure we’ll be doing at least “Dead Man’s Cell Phone” by Sarah Ruhl.</p>
