Theater in the Wild

Ever thought of writing and performing a play where the outdoors is the hero? Or what it's like to be the outdoors? To find out, let's act it out as we build outdoor empathy!

Nuhop would like to thank our special guest, and former Nuhop staff member, Mike Ostroski, for sharing his expertise and love of the theater with you all today. You may recognize him from his recurring role as Dr. Minyak on both Nickelodeon's Henry Danger and the new spinoff series Danger Force, but today, he helps us to engage our natural world in a new and unique way!

It's Time for the Show!

The Field.pdf

The best part about writing a show, is performing the show! We are so excited to have some special guests who were excited to bring The Field to life. Because you are all in different situations, we decided to show you two different ways you could perform during quarantine. We hope this gives you some ideas as you think about your own show.

The Field: Maggie and Liam

Do you have people at home who would be interested in performing your show? Maggie and Liam show us their rendition of The Field. Just say no to bulldozing!

The Field: Emma and Stuart

OK, so you don't have people at home who are willing/able/courageous enough to act. We get it! Stuart and Emma show us how to use technology to put together your show - from two different houses!
