Christopher Sergel’s play is a faithful adaptation of S.E. Hinton’s coming-of-age-novel about rival teenage gangs in 1960s Tulsa, Oklahoma. The Greasers come from troubled working-class backgrounds, contrasted with the Socials, whose members are from upper-middle-class families. Like the novel, the play centers on 14-year-old Ponyboy Curtis, a member of the Greasers gang, as he recounts the violent aftermath after his friend Johnny fatally stabbed Socials member Bob. This adaptation places some of the violence and strong language off-stage making the material appropriate for teen performers.
The characters—Dallas, who wasn't tough enough; Sodapop, the happy-go-lucky dropout; Bob, the rich kid whose arrogance cost him his life; Ponyboy, the sensitive, green-eyed Greaser who didn't want to be a hood - This is a play about young people who are not yet hopeless about latent decency in the midst of struggle.
Please note: Female students may be cast in male character roles. This is a play, not a musical.
This production will have two casts, each cast will have two performances each. However the opposite cast may be utilized in the final scene of the opposite cast's performances as ensemble.
Please note: Students may participate in multiple classes and programs with OFC at the same time.
