Time to sign up for YOUNG ACTORS WORKSHOP 2016
Ilion Little Theater Club will once again conduct a Young Actors Workshop (YAW) this spring. It will give young people from 8 to 17 years of age a chance to learn about live theater by taking part in the production of a play. All participants will have the opportunity to learn and perform one or more acting roles. They will also have a chance to be involved in other aspects of producing a play, such as helping to create a set, making costumes and handling stage props.
The workshop will be held at the ILTC playhouse, The Stables, 13 Remington Ave in Ilion and will be conducted under the direction of Dave Stritmater, with the assistance of one or more other members of ILTC.
There is no charge for participating. However, we greatly encourage parents to participate in the workshop activities. For example, we ask every parent who can to
provide a snack or a beverage for at least one meeting. Parents can also help the children memorize their lines. They can also help with costumes and props, prompting, etc.
