Duet Rehearsal

Katie and Ainsley stretch for their duet rehearsal. It's just like any other day -- they don't like their costumes, their teacher's on their case, their muscles feel tight. Except lately their teacher has REALLY been on their case in a close, unnerving way. But competition's coming up, and so is a high school dance, and they just can't seem to get the steps right.

Duet Rehearsal

Recommended by

  • Morey Norkin: Duet Rehearsal

    As two teenage girls limber up before dance practice, we learn disturbing news about their male instructor’s methods. As happens too often, the girls want to believe that his intentions are well-meaning and they are hesitant to speak out. Rebecca Kane combines great sensitivity and realism to give voice to so many who need to be heard.

    This is a powerful and haunting piece, and Kane handles it with sensitivity, compassion, and directness. I found it both deeply moving and very disturbing. Kane provides adult eyes to what so many young women have experienced, calling the audience to pay attention to the stories of teenagers and do better. Very well-written.

    This play was high-intensity in a low-intensity setting. You know from the beginning that something isn't quite right, and it leaves the audience at the edge of their seat. I thoroughly enjoyed every second, and I am so glad I got to see it at the William Inge Theatre Festival!
