Schubert's
Last Serenade is a comedy about individualism and making your own choices.
The main characters, Alfred and Bebe are placed in a pretentious French
restaurant and must overcome the demands of stereotyping to be who they
really are, two young people in love. The show includes a mod-rocker,
Franz Schubert, an indifferent waiter, an impatient cook, and a megalomaniac
Matre'D played by fourteen to sixteen- year-old actors from EASY Theatre's
Touring Teen Troupe.
Schubert's
Last Serenade was produced by special arrangement with Samuel French,
Inc.

Dr. James R. Miller the Chairman
of the Department of Theatre and Dance at Sam Houston State University,
who was the Commentator for TNT's Youth Conference where 13 of the best
youth companys from Texas perfomed; commented on the incredible maturity
of the acting, the complexity of the script, the attention to detail, and
how well our cast stayed true to the style of the play from beginning to
end. He said the play was a delightful way to conclude three days
of shows.
