Kill Your Darlings is a student-created, imaginative exploration of theatre-making by Horace Mann students. On the eve of opening night, a young director discovers the elements of theatre coming to life. Costumes demand attention. Lighting refuses cues. Sound interrupts scenes. Props wander, music swells, stage directions argue back. Acting, motivation, blocking and design become characters of their own, each insisting on control of the stage. What begins as rehearsal becomes chaos as the director struggles to keep the production on track. Through humour, invention and physical storytelling, the ensemble celebrates the unpredictable magic of theatre.
