Theatre 55

THEATRE 55

Theatre 55 was created in 2018 to fill a need in the Twin Cities and throughout Minnesota: theatre performed by seniors. It was formed with the purpose of developing lifelong learning through theatre performance and education. Our Mission is to enrich the lives of elders as artists, audiences, and lifelong learners through theatre performance and education.

THE THEATRE 55 METHOD

During the rehearsal process, novice performers will have a hands-on opportunity to learn from professional actors along with a musical director, choreographer, and director, in a peer to peer methodology. Participants will learn theatre skills of using your body, voice, imagination, breath control, movement, expression, and self-promotion through social media.

VISION

Our Vision is to shift the paradigm on aging through theatre and eliminate ageism.

We have been so fortunate to have received support from foundations and friends like you to continue our work. Please consider making a monthly donation to help us make a difference in the lives of elder artists.
