Young actors will learn audition skills, stage presence, acting techniques, vocal projection, showmanship, stage movement, blocking, directions, script reading and analysis, communication skills, teamwork, and puppetry. Lead by Savannah Medlin and Ethan Wolf, they will be well rehearsed. On Friday evening, August 4, everyone is invited to the final play.
