The Upstart Crows formed in the summer of 2013 when a group of young actors came together to produce a modern dress production of Hamlet. Managing every aspect of their creation, and then getting an enthusiastic response from audiences, was so satisfying and enjoyable that the group was inspired to move forward as a company. The Crows became a place where young actors could be in charge– they could direct and act in the plays that interested them, and produce them in the style that they envisioned.
From the beginning, the philosophy of the Upstart Crows has been for the youth of the company to take charge. All creative decisions are in the hands of the actors. The director, who is one of the company, casts the play and recruits a production team from the company. Experienced members mentor those who are interested in stage management, lighting and set design and other aspects of stagecraft. Rehearsals are collaborative and everyone involved is invited to give their thoughts and input. This egalitarian approach to theater results in productions that are a joy for the actors as well as their audience.
