AREA STUDENTS INVITED TO PARTICIPATE IN FESTIVAL OF THEATRE ARTS
Willsboro, N.Y. - The Willsboro Central School Drama Club, in partnership the Depot Theatre Academy, will host a one-day Festival of Theatre Arts on May 14, 2022 from 9am to 4pm.
The Festival is free and open to all students in grades 7-12 from any school, and offers the opportunity for participation in workshops in singing, acting, dance, and behind-the-scenes technology with Depot Theatre teaching artists from Broadway and beyond.
“We’re pleased to offer this full, fun day of all things theatre,” said Jennifer Moore, Festival organizer, teacher, musician and member of the Depot Theatre Advisory Council. “It’s a terrific opportunity for students to learn practical skills directly from professional artists, and even to explore theatre-related careers!”
“This event aligns perfectly with the Depot Theatre Academy’s plans to expand our education and outreach into regional schools,” said Ginene Mason, Depot Theatre’s new Academy Director of Outreach and Education. “We appreciate the opportunity to partner with Jennifer and the school to support their ongoing prioritization of arts and culture programming.”
Students are asked to wear masks when not performing. Lunch and snacks will be provided. Registration is open and should be submitted by May 10. The registration form is available online at www.depottheatre.org/festival. For more information, contact Jennifer Moore at jmoore@willsborocsd.org.
