When you’re magic, you can change all the rules.
Spell-casting. Shape-shifting. Growing up. When magic kids and human kids collide, the rules of reality are up for grabs in NEYT’s bold, new, original production, Transfixed!
Transfixed! takes place in a magical realm where wizards, witches, sorcerers, and unknown mystical creatures live with reckless abandon. In a nearby world, human beings extinguish any signs of magic in favor of normalcy and predictability. Young magicals and young humans alike struggle for control of their lives and the very rules of reality, all while navigating the pressures of growing up. In this tale of magic, coming of age, and rebellion, expect spell-casting, potion-making, and shape-shifting.

The process will include improvisation games, lip syncing, expressive movement exercises, and extensive ensemble work. We will also have a playwriting ensemble who will support the development of the piece in a responsive manner.

This theatrical extravaganza will include dance, drag, clown, puppetry, mask work, comedic dialogue, melodrama, circus arts and more. We welcome multidisciplinary artists and writers/performers ages 10-19 to bring their magic to the Tranfixed! ensemble.
