Due to the inclement weather, the Saturday performance of The Theory of Relativity has been postponed to Sunday, January 19 at 3:00 PM.

Spectacle Theatre proudly presents the Musical Theatre Class in The Theory of Relativity on January 16, 17, and 18!

The Theory of Relativity is a new musical song-cycle by Neil Bartram and Brian Hill. The musical is a joyous and moving look at our surprisingly interconnected lives. Through a seemingly unrelated collection of songs, scenes and monologues, The Theory of Relativity introduces a compelling array of characters experiencing the joys and heartbreaks, the liaisons and losses, the inevitability and the wonder of human connection.

The Theory of Relativity is being performed in the PHS Black Box Theatre on January 16, 17, and 18 at 7:30 PM. The production features the Musical Theatre class, and members of the PHS Studio Band and Tech Crew.

Tickets are $5.00 and can be purchased at the door or online at https://princetondrama.ludus.com/. Doors will open at 7:10 PM. All seats are General Admission.

About the PHS Drama Program

Whether a student dreams of starring in a show, leading the technical team, or helping manage a theatrical production, the PHS Drama department has a long legacy of introducing students to theatre in a way that builds confidence on and off stage. From Drama I classes to the Advanced Acting and Performance Seminar, students explore all aspects of theatre through hands-on experiences.

Drama classes are offered during the day so that students are able to participate in theatre productions while also being a member of an athletic team or other after-school organization. Courses offer students a creative outlet while also introducing them to the principles and techniques of playwriting, including plot structure, dramatic action, point of view, mood, character development, setting, written dialogue, and stage directions. In addition to acting courses, PHS also offers a course on Musical Theatre that explores song and dance and provides students with practical steps to pursuing a career.

Our theatre facilities include the 700+ seat Trego-Biancosino Auditorium and a black box theatre. A full student orchestra accompanies the annual spring musical.
