GREAT EXPECTATIONS
A truly unique re-imagining of the beloved Charles Dickens classic, GREAT EXPECTATIONS is fully devised and adapted by the cast and creative team of The Company Theatre for a Rochester audience.
Following Pip from his humble beginnings as an orphan living with his venomous sister and her kindly blacksmith husband, to his sudden and unexpected transition to a gentlemanly status in London, this story has captivated audiences for over 160 years.
​
Blurring the lines between rehearsal and performance, 8 actors play out the events of Pip’s life in this fresh, exciting, and heartfelt one-act adaptation.

GREAT EXPECTATIONS runs March 28 - April 6, 2025 at The Temple Theatre.

Our 2024-2025 season opener was THE SUMMER LAND by Kate Royal, and directed by The Company Theatre Artistic Director Carl Del Buono which ran from November 8-17. This haunting and homegrown new work explored the intersection of the Spiritualist and civil rights movements in Rochester, prompting audiences to question what they thought they knew about life, death, and liberty.
