DESCRIPTION

Summer 2025 is the year of 'Misunderstood Monsters' at Mythik Camps. Ever wondered what the Minotaur does in his downtime? Or where exactly Mothman came from? Is Medusa really a monster, or is she just misunderstood? Join us this summer as we explore the other side of the stories of iconic monsters from cultures around the world.


At Mythik Camps, with the help of talented performers like you, we bring ancient myths to life as modern, multicultural immersive stories for kids ages 7-12 to experience in a fun, outdoor summer camp environment. Each week of camp is a new Quest, and each Quest plunges campers into the center of the action as demigods trying to prove themselves as legendary heroes. Quest adventures are full of (foam) sword fights, magic spells and potions, puzzles to solve and negotiations to navigate as they journey to save the world from evil forces from the mythological world.

Directed by Arya Shahi

Rehearsals Begin: 9/9/25

Performance Run: 10/2/25 – 11/2/25

Possible Extension: 11/4/25 – 11/9/25

SYNOPSIS: “English Only” is the mantra that rules one classroom in Iran, where four adults are preparing for the TOEFL – the Test of English as a Foreign Language. Together with their teacher they leapfrog through a linguistic playground that is a funny, stunning triumph about the universal foibles of language and miscommunication, hoping that one day English will make them whole.


SEEKING:

Marjan: female/female identifying, early 40s - early 50s, Iranian; teacher of English as a second language; a welcoming and composed educator who became fluent in English while living in the UK for 9 years; loves speaking English, feels it is a beautiful way to communicate and connect, though since returning to Iran she feels her fluency is eroding and is beginning to question her right and ability to teach it, as well as her sense of self as a result; speaks with a light Iranian accent.

Elham: female/female identifying, late 20s - early 30s, Iranian; an intelligent, driven and competitive student; frustrated with herself and her (lack of) progress in the class, as her admittance to medical school is contingent upon her successfully passing; her frustration leads to frequent conflict with others and disruptions in the class; speaks with a very thick Iranian accent.

Roya: female/female identifying, 50s - early 70s, Iranian; a dignified, refined, proud student learning English at her English-speaking son's insistence; deeply loves her family and is willing to go through the class to be closer to them, but prefers the beauty and elegance of her mother tongue; speaks with a thick Iranian accent.

Goli: female/female identifying, age 18, Iranian; bright, enthusiastic and sweet; a determined and diligent student whose positive outlook and effervescence often annoy her classmates; loves pop culture; her dogged optimism almost always wins the day; speaks with a light, sweet Iranian accent.

Omid: male/male identifying, late 20s - early 40s, Iranian; a confident, charismatic and somewhat mysterious student who quickly demonstrates astute skill with and proficiency in the English language; though amiable with his fellow students, he is guarded with his personal life; lives in Iran but was born in the US and wrestles with feeling that he belongs to neither world; speaks with a very light Iranian accent.

The Bartender: 60s-70s; the straight man for a lot of jokes but is also able to communicate directly to the audience with subtle, simple looks. The Bartender is willing to go on whatever journey the patrons of the bar bring him on. A great listener and is gracious at giving the stage over to the other characters without distracting.

The Man: approx. 40s; versatile; will double as multiple Christmas characters who have now aged. Able to go from one very distinct character to another. Has impeccable comic timing.

Possible Extension: 3/17/26 – 3/22/26

SYNOPSIS: Every morning at a local diner in upstate New York, one daily cup of coffee connects a lonely waitress and her sleep-deprived regular as their unlikely friendship develops. When he asks her for a shocking favor, it brings to light both of their deepest secrets – and sets off a provocative, intimate theatrical triumph. THE COUNTER is a funny, surprising, and moving story about how everyday connections can change our lives.


SEEKING:

Katie: female, late 30s-early 40s; quick witted, guarded but shockingly honest

Paul: male, 60s; salt of the earth, set in his ways, weary but with a good sense of humor about it

Dr. Bradley: female, 40s-50s; straight-shooter, kind, excellent b.s. detector

SYNOPSIS: It’s July 1944. With the nation at war and a heat wave settling over the city, the residents of Hartford, Connecticut eagerly await the arrival of “The Greatest Show on Earth.” Moments into the show, the unthinkable occurs – a fire that turns the big top into an inferno. In the minutes, hours, and days following the blaze, two communities – Hartford and the Circus – find themselves irretrievably intertwined by tragedy, blame, heroism, and healing. This multimedia, immersive production is co-conceived by playwright Jacques Lamarre, Jared Mezzocchi, and TheaterWorks Artistic Director Rob Ruggiero to honor the power of community in our 40th Season.
