Hemingway’s The Nick Adams Stories will be adapted, written, produced, and performed by the middle-school students in the summer youth theatre program at Pit and Balcony. Not only will students gain theatre production skills, but additional learning skills in adapting a work of literature by Hemingway. Artists/scholars from the Saginaw Valley area will work with students on theatrical skills and training for performance, visual artists/scholars from the Saginaw Art Museum will work with them on developing stage scenery, and writers with the 303 Collective will work with the students on research and writing. A modest fee is charged for the performance but free tickets will be distributed through community networks serving those groups with financial need.
