This class is a two semester/ year long class for kids with a wide range of gifts and interests who are ready to use their skills by putting on a play from scratch! ***The acting roles for the play have already been cast, but new kids are welcome to join this semester and help with back stage work. Since this is a two semester class and all our roles are already cast, priority registration will be given to kids who are already cast in the play.

The first semester we wrote an original play and music, started working on set and costume design, held try outs, and cast rolls for our play. 

Semester two will consist of putting all the pieces together to produce a finished original play, which will be performed in mid May outside of class time. (Exact dates and location are still to be determined.) We will once again work in teams to act, direct and produce the play. We will focus on stage management, hair/make up, costume/set design, advertising, choreography, acting, and more!

While we will have adults around for guidance, we hope this class will be strongly led by the kids who take it. For that reason we ask that the kids who sign up be ready to participate in an active and helpful way for the whole group. This is a HUGE team project, and each kid’s role is vital in our success. If they sign up we NEED them, and the whole group is depending on them working hard in their role. Please make sure your child knows this before choosing to sign up.

We can’t wait to see it all come together! It is going to be so fun!

*** IMPORTANT INFO***This class will involve work outside of normal co-op hours especially during the second semester. Specifics on that are still to be determined.
