Meet the New Director!

“Come on, something, come on in, don’t be shy, Meet a guy, Pull up a chair!”

Directing our production and leading our workshops this year is Dr. Wade Fransen, of Shenandoah University. An assistant professor of theatre in the Shenandoah Conservatory, Dr. Fransen brings a wealth of experience and a love of teaching to enhance our summer program.

Along with our producers and Music Director Lora Kearns, Dr. Fransen is developing a great program for our 2008 activity. Sing along!

“The air is humming...” and our student actors will be humming — and singing and dancing, with a terrific schedule of workshops that will teach stage skills, including how to prepare for auditions. Workshops begin on June 16.

New this year is a Technician Workshop, a special three-week session beginning in early July just for up-and-coming backstage experts.
