Janet is 97 and her life has been a parade. Kleev Guessford and Conner Wharton spent an afternoon, exploring Janet through the eras of her life. Sponsored in part by a Arts Project Grant from the City of West Hollywood.
Under the direction of actor, director and producer Mark Salyer, NewStages is a collective of teaching artists, directors, writers and performers from Broadway, film, and television who are committed to producing wildly entertaining arts experiences for seniors.
In 2011, Bruce Bierman created an offshoot of the award-winning Stagebridge. In 2014, we became NewStages, a program of Oasis Theater Company, and we have since produced dozens of workshops, classes, and performances. In 2020, we launched our new Zoom series.
