BE PART OF THE INAUGURAL CLASS!
NEW! Our teen summer theatre program will consist of two 4-week sessions. Each 4-week session is an intensive training program in which students will audition, rehearse, design, tech, and perform a theatrical production of a well-known play under the instruction of working professionals.
Students of the program need to understand that dedication, focus, and participation make the program successful for all. We are thrilled to launch this new program for teens interested in strengthening their passion for theatre and look forward to creating something incredible!

Performance: Thursday, June 29 at 4 pm
Session II: The 39 Steps: A Live Radio Play By Joe Landry
(July 10-August 4)
Inspired by Hitchcock’s classic tale and performed as a live period radio play, this romantic thriller is a fast-paced ride through the signature world of the Master of Suspense. Richard Hannay is visiting 1930s London when he meets Annabella Smith, who is on the run from foreign agents, after a disturbance at a music hall. Later that night, Annabella is murdered, and Hannay must try to break the spy ring and prove his innocence. From an epic train chase to a feisty love interest, Hannay has his work cut out for him as he searches for the truth about The 39 Steps.
