COMET - A Show Aimed Specifically at Teenage Boys

Replay Theatre Company has been making theatre adventures for younger audiences since 1988.  In autumn 2014, they created a brand new show called ‘COMET’.  Written by award-winning writer John McCann, COMET had the specific aim of engaging that notoriously difficult-to-engage demographic that is teenage boys.  Inspired by hours of interviews that John did with young men in a diverse range of settings, COMET was performed directly and unexpectedly in the classroom - with each performance being uniquely influenced by how the audience responded.  With 100% of teachers saying that they would book the show again, and responses from the audience including 'it makes you want to rip your heart out and throw it on the stage', Replay will be retouring COMET to schools and community centres in Autumn 2015.  To read the script and the evaluation report, go to: www.replaytheatreco.org/projects/resources.php   For further information, or to enquire about booking COMET, contact Anna Newell, Artistic Director, Replay Theatre Company at Email: This email address is being protected from spambots.
