Arts for Teens Summer 2017!!
The Arts for Teens program is for guys and girls ages 13-15, and runs from 9:00am-4:00pm, Monday through Friday in TWO, Three-Week Sessions. In each session, the Teens work on producing and performing their own unique version of a hot Broadway Musical. We are excited to announce that we will be under the direction of two new additions to our Teens Staff, Dr. Colleen Rua for session 1 and Allison Porter for session 2!
The structure of the Arts for Teens day will remain similar to past summers – teens will study the craft of acting in the morning, in addition to working with a choreographer. They will also work with a team of visual artists for one hour each day, who will help them design and create the scenery and props for each production.
Late mornings and afternoons are devoted to rehearsing the show. (Teens are also invited to periodically perform songs and scenes in the AfY 12:30 Revue, as they strengthen performance skills and ready themselves for audience feedback!) At the end of both sessions, teens will design the flyers and program for their production, and will perform on the final Thursday night of each session (7/13 & 8/03) at 7:00pm. These performances are open to all invited friends, family members, and the community at large!
This summer, Arts for Teens will produce Legally Blonde, Jr in Session I and The Phantom Tollbooth, Jr in Session II!
