OnStage Seniors presents 'documentary theater' on the theme of remembering. The performance will include a talk-back, encouraging participants to find common ground through stories told on stage.
OnStage Seniors gathers true stories from the community and uses them to create monologues and scenes on a yearly theme. Directed by Josh Schnetzer, performances this year have been held at the Princeton Senior Resource Center, libraries, senior and assisted living centers and houses of worship throughout the Central Jersey area.
Formerly associated with McCarter Theater and now under the umbrella of the Princeton Senior Resource Center, OnStage Seniors finds stories through Story Circles and one-on-one interviews. The stories are then recorded, transcribed and edited for the stage.
