Paragon Youth Ensemble Hosts Summer Intensive Program For Kids 6/8-7/11

Paragon Theatre is pleased to announce the new Paragon Youth Ensemble (pye) Summer Intensive Program for Kids Age 14 - 18. An intensive five-week professional ensemble theatre prep program that will be held each summer, PYE is designed to empower a select group of teenagers, ages 14 to 18, to mount a full-length play on their own while working in a collaborative, ensemble-based environment. Students will leave PYE with a full understanding of the many facets of theatre production, both on-stage and off, and how theatre must be approached as a collaborative art form to succeed. PYE will excite, challenge and encourage students with a passion for theatre to work together to create a production they can call their own.

Students will work directly with Paragon's co-founder and award-winning artistic director, Warren Sherrill, while also learning from select professionals working in various capacities within the performing arts. By the end of the five-week intensive, students will have conceptualized, designed, built and rehearsed a full- length production and give two public performances at The Crossroads Theatre in Denver.

PYE students will meet Mondays through Thursdays from 9:00 a.m to 1:00 p.m. from June 8 through July 11, 2009 at The Crossroads Theatre, located at 27th and Welton Performances will be held on Friday, July 10 and Saturday, July 11 at 7:30 p.m. at The Crossroads Theatre.
Tuition is $300 and includes a PYE T-shirt, a photo CD of the performance and two complimentary tickets to the final performance.
