The Theatre School @ North Coast Rep presents the chaotic and empowering tale of Madeleine L’Engles’s "A Wrinkle in Time," adapted by Morgan Gould as its next student production. One of literature’s most enduring young heroines, Meg Murry, is here — braces, stubbornness, and all. Once again, she’s joining forces with Mrs. Whatsit, Charles Wallace, Calvin O’Keefe and more to battle the forces of evil so she can rescue her father, save humanity, and find herself. In the end, we know two things for sure: 1. Love CAN overcome evil and 2. There IS such a thing as a tesseract. This faithful, ensemble-driven adaptation of the beloved novel masterfully retells the story in a fresh and enduring way. Director Benjamin Cole is grinning with joy to share the creative storytelling of his student cast. “Using actor’s bodies, lights, costumes, and sound, our cast is having a blast finding new ways to bring the tale to life,” Cole bursts. “We create several unique ways of 'wrinkling' through time, as well as building characters as described by the adapter as “a stunning creature like a centaur with giant wings. Majestic. Ethereal.” he insists. Assistant Director and Actor/Mentor Benedict Heaps adds, “These students are fearlessly tackling a very difficult script. Watching them turn its abstraction into reality is an awesome experience.” The show runs a mystical 90-100 minutes with one intermission and aims to awe audiences throughout. Additional production staff includes Sound Designer, Marilynn Do; Stage Manager, Paul Smith; Assistant Choreographer, Charlotte Larson; and Lighting Designer, Liam Sullivan. Featured in the cast are (Stewart Armstrong, Poway; Simone Cho, Carmel Valley; Benedict Heaps, Normal Heights; Charlotte Johnson, Encinitas; Wyatt Kirby, Mesa Verde; Abby Klubeck, Del Sur; Niki Minasian, Rancho Santa Fe; Ezri Rohatgi, Encinitas; Maya Rosenberg, Del Mar; Harper Smith, Encinitas; Phoebe Thomas, San Marcos; and Maeve Zavattero, Carlsbad.
