The Production Workshop is geared for young people 1st through 6th grade who want to have fun exploring all the various areas involved in putting on theatrical productions. The participants will learn about acting, scenery, props, costumes, lighting and performing! Part of the day will be spent rehearsing for a production the students will present on the last Thursday evening of the session on the Hathway Brown stage!
