BARE: A Pop Opera

White Plains Performing Arts Center and Harrison Summer Theatre presents BARE: A Pop Opera.

The
musical is about the coming-of-age story of five high school seniors at a
Catholic boarding school. Knowing their stay in this insular world is drawing
to a close, each of them question where they are in their lives and what the
future holds in store. Answers are sought in the church confessional and in
less formal venues including a stage, a rave, and a well-locked dorm room. The
story zooms in on the love relationship between two boys, Peter and Jason.
Peter a socially awkward loner and Jason the golden boy popular jock.
Throughout the story we see the struggles, trials and tribulations that they go
through to keep their relationship alive and hidden, and how their love affects
their friends and the people around them. Will the world accept them? This is a
beautiful story of going against adults, religion and everything that they were
ever told.

Directed by Jeremy Quinn with musical direction by Stephen Ferri, choreography by Lexie Fennell Frare and lighting design by Jamie Roderick.
