TheatreWorks New Milford's TWKids Program begins its winter program on Saturday, January 28, culminating with performances in March. The workshop includes a 90-minute skills class once a week after school and rehearsals on Saturday mornings with instructor Beth Bonnabeau.
TheatreWorks New Milford's description about the show: "Ms. Bonnabeau has put together an incredible original program called Broadway Bedlam! Have you ever dream of playing Jean Val Jean from Les Miserables, but you're a girl? Or how about Anita from West Side Story....if only you weren't a blue-eyed blonde? Well, here's your chance! In this romp of a musical revue through Broadway classics, we'll explore what it feels like to make those "impossible" theatrical dreams come true. From an all-male version of "Matchmaker" from Fiddler on the Roof to a rousing female version of "Luck Be A Lady" from Guys & Dolls, we'll break all the rules...and have one heck of a time in the process!"
The TWKids program, specially designed for grades 2 – 8, focuses on the craft of acting, along with lessons throughout the process of mounting a production, vocal skills and basic choreography. This program inspires creativity, confidence and a sense of community through the exploration and practice of theatre skills. The TW Kids after-school and summer programs have helped bring the joy of theatre to many children and given each and every one of them a chance to learn and grow.
