Oregon Children’s Theatre presents SPIDER (ages 14+)
February 7 - February 16
$15 – $20
“Baby Spiderman KILLED EVIL Spider!” blows up on YouTube Kids. A rogue program escapes the Simulation — in a video game called Awakenings. And a choir prepares to sing with one voice. When a school shooting reveals the delicate web connecting these events, the people tangled within it start to wonder: who’s to blame? Written by an alumni of the YP Company, this powerful new play about iPad kids, collective trauma, and what we trust AI to do will stick with you long after the final bows.
Originally produced by the YP Company in October 2023, this revised version of the script will tour local high schools after its premiere public performances!
“[The Company’s] great work in this show bodes well for the future of Portland theatre, while the play itself gives me hope that the world of tomorrow might contain a lot more empathy and kindness than we have today… If you are a teenager, have a teenager, or want to know more about what it’s like to be a teenager right now, definitely go see it.” —Krista Garver, Broadway World
