The Young Performers Workshop is a program designed to teach kids ages 8 to 18 about the arts. During the Summer Intensive these students have the opportunities to learn about multiple different facets of theatre arts from acting, singing, and dancing, to graphic design, production management, and playwrighting. Each session concludes with a weekend Festival of Shows.
Steel Magnolias tells the story of friendship between women as M'Lynn, the mother of the bride-to-be, and Shelby Eatenton, the bride, prepare for the wedding. Their friend Truvy Jones and an aspiring beautician Annelle Dupuy Desoto are styling their hair, when Shelby has a health scare that doesn't bode well for her hopes of having children.
Fortress is the story of nine-year-old Billy who accidentally finds out he is adopted. In order to cope with his feelings of betrayal Billy builds his own Fortress of Solitude, deciding to model his life after the world’s most famous orphan, Superman.
Finally, the One-Act Playhouse is a selection of shorter performances brought together to form an evening of storytelling.
