Issue-Oriented Plays for Teens, Parents and Educators
The Laguna Playhouse is committed to providing young people with opportunities to experience theatre as entertainment, enrichment and enlightenment in different ways, depending upon their ages, interests, needs and abilities.
Theatre for a New Generation offers thoughtful and compelling productions for teenaged audiences who may have outgrown our Youth Theatre Season.
Each TNG play is a fully-evolved piece of theatre and may involve Youth Conservatory students. Plays are chosen for their relevance to the concerns of teenagers and for their ability to communicate frankly and directly, at a level those teenagers will respect and appreciate.
A note about the content of our Theatre for a New Generation plays
TNG plays are for teens, parents and educators, and parental discretion is strongly advised. The content of the plays is typically similar to PG-rated or PG-13-rated movies. There is no nudity, but costumes sometimes reflect provocative trends in teen attire and the language may at times be gritty or profane. The subject matter is always challenging, and has ranged from plays about the Holocaust, racism and school violence, to works about damaging rumors about sexual identity and the need to overcome self-desctructive behavior.
