What's New with the Young Company?

Macbeth
The Young Company rehearsals and in-school teaching workshops are well underway, and luckily, we have the inside scoop for you on all things Macbeth. How so you ask? With members of Classic Stage Company's NextGen!

CSC's NextGen
Our brand new program for teens, NextGen, gives motivated students who are passionate about the theatre a stepping-stone to further engage with CSC and with the greater world of professional theatre. Members have the opportunity to see performances, meet CSC artists, go behind the scenes of CSC productions, learn new skills in the theatre, plan and lead special events for their peers, and contribute to CSC’s social media outlets.

NextGen members are excited to bring you a diversified and comprehensive look into all aspects of the production. Readers can anticipate highlights in the rehearsal process; interviews with cast members, artists, and production team members; photo and video footage, and more. This dynamic group of teens is engaging with the Young Company every step of the way; be sure to come along for the ride!

The Study Guide
Last but not least, the long awaited STUDY GUIDE is here! Our gorgeous new study guide features the work of illustrator David Heatley, behind-the-scenes info on our production, post-workshop lesson plans for teachers, and more! While only those schools participating in our program have exclusive access to our study guide, we'll be giving you a sneak-peek of some of David's work here on our blog, beginning with the cover illustration.
