Registration has begun for SHENANARTS' brand new theatre training program for everyone from Elementary students to Adults!
THE PRESBURY THEATRICAL TRAINING PROGRAM is a new "theatre school" that offers a unique way for our community to learn about theatre! Through the process of putting together a FULL-SCALE PRODUCTION, students will learn all about the ins-and-outs of theatre, from memorizing lines to tap-dancing!
Due to copyright restrictions, we can't release the titles of the productions just yet. But we can give you some hints!
HINT #1
What do you get when you take a young lady under a spell, a handsome prince, a team of magic fairies, an evil sorceress and a fire-breathing dragon from one of the most famous Disney features of all time and put them on stage?.
Beginning Theatre's production for the Fall/Winter Semester of the Presbury Theatrical Training Program, that's what!
HINT #2
Integrating storytelling, tribal dancing, vibrant colors, and a pulsing Caribbean score by the Tony Award-winning team that brought you "Ragtime" and "Suessical," Intro to Theatre's production for the Fall/Winter Semester of the Presbury Theatrical Training Program, is sure to be a unique and original experience for both audience and performer!
HINT #3
Get ready for a brand new re-envisioning of one of the biggest Off-Broadway and Broadway hits of all time! Based on one VERY famous book, this show draws from various theatrical traditions, such as clowning, pantomime, charades, acrobatics and vaudeville and includes a internationally famous score by the composer of "Wicked." Theatre I's production for the Fall/Winter Semester of the Presbury Theatrical Training Program is sure to be a groundbreaking and unique performance with a message of kindness, tolerance and love.
A to-be-titled showcase of the theatrical talents in our Adult class. Wait! We CAN give you the theme of our dance recital.
"100 Years of Dance on Broadway"
A celebration of dance and choreography in Broadway musicals spanning from the "old classics" to shows currently running in New York!
