Centenary Stage Company's TYRO Fall Acting Program Returns This Year

The Centenary Stage Company continues their tradition of nurturing young artists by offering the TYRO Acting Program again this fall. The TYRO Theatre Program provides an introduction to theatre skills for children ages 8 - 10. This 10 week program runs September 9 through November 18 and meets on Wednesdays of each week from 4:30 to 5:30pm in The Little Theatre located on the campus of Centenary College. Registration is $150 per student and limited to ten students. The registration deadline is August 31.

The TYRO Program is led by Maria Brodeur, the CSC Education Director. Brodeur is a professional actress and arts educator with experience in children's theatre who holds a BA in Theatre and Education from Rutgers University. One TYRO parent recently exclaimed, "I saw so much growth in Christine this summer as a result of the wonderful handling given by all of you." TYRO, along with the critically acclaimed Young Performers Workshop programs, represents the youth educational arm of the Centenary Stage Company, a professional Equity theatre in residence at Centenary College.
