CENTENARY YOUNG PERFORMERS WORKSHOP ACCEPTING SPRING 2011 REGISTRATIONS AND INTERVIEWS

Succeed-pressRegistrations are still being accepted for the critically acclaimed Young Performers Workshop Spring 2011 Session which runs February 12-May 29. Students meet on Saturdays during the session and perform in a 10-day Spring Festival of Shows open to the public at the end of each session. (Left: How to Succeed in Business Without Even Trying)

Hailed as “the most professional kids’ troupe around” (Star Ledger), this professional musical theater-training program is open to all beginning, intermediate and advanced aspiring young performers ages 8-18. No prior experience is necessary, however, acceptance into the program is based on applicants completing an interview/audition process. 

YPW Spring Session Interviews are scheduled for Sunday, January 23  on the campus of Centenary College, 400 Jefferson Street, Hackettstown, NJ.  Students interested in participating in the program  should contact the Centenary Stage Company to arrange for an appointment time.
