Shakespeare Rep to Offer New Training Program for Young Actors; Application Deadline 7/30

Shakespeare Rep, Beaufort's classical theatre company, has announced the creation of a new training program for young actors. Under the guidance of highly skilled theatre artists, area high school students will have the opportunity to train and develop their craft at no cost to them. Selected students will complete a series of classical performance workshops and be involved in the company's spring production of A Midsummer Night's Dream.

Resident Company Member Erin Dailey will lead this new educational initiative. An alumna of the South Carolina Governor's School for the Arts and the prestigious Juilliard School of NYC, Dailey brings a wealth of knowledge, training and experience to the leadership role. Dailey states, "I am delighted to be working with our young minds and to open them to the beauties, discoveries, adventures and truths of all they are capable of by exploring the world of Shakespeare."

Applications will be accepted through July 30 and are available via the Shakespeare Rep website: www.shakespearerep.co.
