Creating live professional theatre that entertains and enlightens for the Lake Norman and Charlotte communities!
Our intern company with five interns from NC A&T State University and three interns from Davidson College have created this original show! Written as a theatre for young audiences show, it is ideal for ages 5-12. Public performances will take place on the Cunningham Theatre Center lawn on Davidson's campus on July 1, 7 & 21 at 11a. Free of charge - bring the young ones out to enjoy the journey!
Common Thread Theatre Collective was founded by theatre faculty members at Davidson College and North Carolina A&T State University. Our goal is to create professional, engaging productions that focus on voices and stories that have traditionally been underrepresented in American mainstream theatre.
We want to create a new kind of summer-stock theatre: one that balances inventive entertainment with thoughtful content, that knits together disparate elements of our local artistic community, that fosters a humane consent-based rehearsal approach for our artists, that prioritizes community engagement around issues of contemporary relevance. Our goal is to grow our little start-up over the next several years into a welcoming home for like-minded artists, while delivering diverse, provocative productions to OUR community.
Despite the differences between our respective institutions, the four of us and our students were bound together by the “common thread” of our commitment to theatre as a force that can influence change, in individuals and across society. We want to bring professional theatre to the Lake Norman/Charlotte community that is exciting and challenging.
