All the World’s a Stage for Elmwood Theatre

Elmwood’s talented troupe chosen to perform in Scotland next summer.

Elmwood Theatre, under the direction of Director of Theatre, Angela Boychuk, has been selected to perform in the world’s largest and most prestigious arts festival—the 2013 Edinburgh Fringe Theatre Festival in Edinburgh, Scotland.

Each August, Edinburgh becomes the most magical and exciting place on earth as performing artists from all over the world come to Scotland to take part in the Edinburgh Fringe Festival. The whole city becomes a stage and visitors can view performances everywhere—from playgrounds to conference rooms to city parks to churches. The Fringe Festival includes over 1800 different performances of music, theatre, dance and comedy during its three week run.

Elmwood’s Dramatic Arts Program, long recognized for its high calibre productions, was nominated to participate as part of the American High School Theatre Festival (AHSTF) 2013 program. The AHSTF Board of Advisors reviews all completed applications and identifies the top high schools based on their most recent bodies of work, awards, community involvements, philosophies and recommendations.

As a result of this rigorous application process, Elmwood Theatre’s 2013 production was chosen for a showcase spot at the AHSTF venue in Edinburgh.

Congratulations to Mrs. Boychuk and the cast and crew of Elmwood Theatre. Break a leg!
