Silver Kite's national award winning Intergenerational Theatre Company creates and performs original life-story based theatre productions which tour to senior living communities, schools, libraries, and community centers in the Puget Sound.
Our Intergenerational Theatre Company has performed and toured 9 productions since 2015. Over 10,000 people from babies - centenarians have seen our productions, laughing, crying, and connecting.
The development of our theatre productions starts with selecting a group of actors from the community. We hold open, public auditions for each production. Intergenerational Theatre Company actors are chosen for their ability to tell stories and authentically engage with the audience not only as actors, but as people. Each actor in our productions represent a different decade of life and ethnic or cultural community.
After the actors are chosen, they share their personal stories inspired by a theme during the rehearsal process. The cast selects and stages some of these stories to include in the production. The stories are then staged and pieced together.
Our latest Intergenerational Theatre Company production tour of "Keys," has been postponed due to the spread of COVID-19. We have recorded the production and have it available for you to watch below.
Thanks for your interest in Silver Kite!
