5 p.m. to 6 p.m. at 128 W. Broad St. at the corner of W. Broad and Jefferson. Next to our November Theatre.
Students and parents will receive an introduction to performance and get to experience and explore their stage presence, playing with an ensemble, and taking direction from a Teaching Artist. It’s a fun way to dip a toe into the world of performance at a young age. Taught by Gracie Berneche.
Cost: $35 per child. One adult free with each child ticket bought.
