August 5 - August 20, 2011*The Shadow Theatre Company Youth Ensemble is a unique summer program, designed for young people who believe that their own self expression is their greatest gift. Classes, taught by local theatre professionals and other artists, will engage the young people in the many facets of live performance, as well as provide them with information on strategies for realizing their long term artistic goals. Classes and workshops will incorporate acting, orchestral music, dance, singing, production, stage production, sound, writing, personal reflection, and creative movement, and will culminate in a show written by the young performing artists in collaboration with a professional playwright. Under the masterful direction of Hugo Jon Sayles, our summer youth program promises to bring you "edutainment" at its best.
