YOUTH PROGRAMS
Make-A-Play Workshop (ages 7 - 12) presented an original multimedia play entitled “Locker #629”Not only do the kids come up with their own characters, but they help to build out the set and make their own props out of paper mache. This year's play was set at Humdrum Middle School where everything was in black and white and there was no joy or happiness in sight. But one day everything started to change as a mysterious locker in an abandoned hallway was finally opened after being locked for 50 years. The students, teachers and FBI soon find their imagination, and outfits…start to change as color returns to the school, in this comedic thriller!
Music On The Main Stage (ages 6 - 12) presented an amazing afternoon of original songs in a show entitled “Concert Show Rock Opera Music Takeover” In this theatrical leaning musical performance the workshop participants worked for two weeks to each write an original song and in small co-writing groups to build a show with 12 original songs. They designed and built out a fantastically colorful set and found new confidence in performing their original works for their families and community.
