Although Gamut Theatre Group's stage in downtown Harrisburg remains closed due to COVID-19, its company of actors will offer interactive, online performances for children and adults, including a modern twist on the classic story of "Sleeping Beauty." "Sleeping Beauty: A Once Upon Online" performance will be performed by Gamut's Popcorn Hat Players on Wednesday, June 24, at 10 a.m. and on Saturday, June 27, at 1 p.m.
Loosely based on the classic tale, this adaptation features modern word play and audience participation. The performance includes a pre-show sing-along highlighting the "5 Rules of COVID-19," a digital performance of "Sleeping Beauty," and a live chat with the Popcorn Hat Players on Zoom. There is a cost to access each performance, with only one ticket needed per screen access.
Furthermore, "Sleeping Beauty on Tour" is an interactive, digital performance available to rent for festivals, events, and organizations. In addition to a pre-show sing-along of the "5 Rules of COVID-19," this production includes a "Make Your Own Wand" handout for magical fun throughout the show. One-day access is available for a set fee, with additional days available at a discount.
Gamut also offers online programming, including Once Upon Online parties, Gamut Game Room parties, and Gamut Theatre Summer Virtual Academy, an online version of its summer theater camp. Information on these programs and other online content offered by Gamut may be found at http://www.gamuttheatre.org.
