The
Un-Common Theatre Company, founded in 1980,
is truly unusual. We are one of the only
children's theatre companies in New England
and provide aspiring young actors, singers,
musicians, and technicians an opportunity to
work under the guidance of theatre
professionals and perform in a professional
theatre house. Our mission is to create a
safe, nurturing, professional environment to
expose youth to the complete theatrical
experience. UTC seeks to develop children's
confidence, self- esteem, teamwork and
effective life skills. We also welcome and
encourage adults to join our volunteer crews
which are an integral part of each
production. Joining us is a sure-fire way to
enrich young lives, enhance your own life,
and ensure the on-going success of the
Un-Common Theatre Company.
Chris Lowey and Amy Van Dell are Co
Presidents of our Board of Directors, Kathy Dowd our
Secretary and Lisa Armstrong is our treasurer. Other board
members are: Wendy Evans, Nancy Fullerton, Anne Marie
Kelley, Jill Levensohn, Lew Levine, Bess Marcus, Louise
Morrish, Joyce Parlapiano, Melanie Peddle, Sue Resnick and
Bev Vita with Associate Board member Kristan Burke
Sturtevant.
Un-Common performs two to four shows a year
at various locations. Our improvisational comedy troupe,
Improv Soup, performs once a month at The Burrell Elementary
School Auditorium in Foxboro, Ma and at other local venues.
We are in our
28th Season and have a long history of hits in
previous seasons.

to 21, from dozens of towns in Massachusetts such as:
