Los Angeles, CA (May 17, 2018) Expectations High is a new play conceived and written by its high school age cast. It receives its world premiere in June as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival.
It started with a group of young teen (and pre-teen) actors who journeyed up to Hollywood from the far reaches of Long Beach and Orange County to support fellow acting students in hard-hitting dramas produced in black box theatre Los Angeles. They were excited and inspired by what they experienced and wanted a chance to do it themselves. Thus – in the spring of 2017, thirteen creative and talented young acting students created their own “Hollywood Fringe Project.” The goal was set – the creation of a play from scratch. Conceive it, write it, rehearse it and present it as part of the Hollywood Fringe Festival 2018.
The cast first met in a Long Beach-based acting class for professional and professional-level young actors in the Long Beach/Orange County area. Take the Stage Long Beach focuses
