Annual Thespian Conference

March 25-27 is the 2nd Annual Thespian Conference.

This is an excellent opportunity for High School and Middle School students to work with theatre professionals on honing their skills and getting answers to questions like, “How do I audition for college?”

Designed to address the needs of students with a passion for performance.  Students will receive 7 Master Classes, Tickets to 3 shows and take part in our panel discussion as well as getting the chance to socialize with their peers from other schools.  This is the only non-competitive theatre event in town where students from different schools can meet and trade their ideas and experiences in theatre.

Attached is the Conference Brochure with further information and the complete schedule.
