Adapted from the Alliance Theatre’s nationally recognized Palefsky Collision Project, this residency guides students through the process of "colliding" with an anchor text (either a piece from the school curriculum or a script from the Alliance Theatre production season). Students engage in creative writing exercises, drama strategies, and relevant research to develop a new piece of theater thematically connected to the original anchor text. This program offers students the opportunity to make personal and real-world connections to classic and emergent literature and empowers each student to have a prominent voice as part of an ensemble cast.
