Inaugural Production: Hungry Teenage Track Stars by Anikka Lekven at Hyde Park Theatre
Marking its debut, Broad Theatre is thrilled to present its first production, the world premiere of Hungry Teenage Track Stars by co-founder Anikka Lekven. Hungry Teenage Track Stars tells the story of a teenage girl’s cross country team as they get ready for their biggest meet of the year. “The moment I read Track Stars I knew it had to be our first full-length,” Fonseca, the show’s director said. “It’s such an amazing script, funny, smart, heartbreaking and a little gross at times. I think the audiences at Hyde Park are going to welcome it.”
