The Western Stage Young Company will be holding
auditions for actors between the ages of 8-20 to join one of the most
affordable and stimulating arts programs in Monterey County. Every summer, the
TWS Young Company offers unique programs for young people interested in
learning about theatre arts.
Play’s-the-Thing is a process-oriented program that teaches aspects of
rehearsal, production, and performance. This program offers a highly supportive
environment that has proven to help students increase their self-awareness and
confidence while they experience improvisation, playwrighting, and play
production. An audition is required. Students will be involved in the creation
and rehearsal of an original production, which will have three public
performances.
YCPresents is a production-oriented program that focuses on aspects of
rehearsal, technical production, and performance. The division produces two YCP
projects each season: a summer musical project and a fall non-musical play.
Summer projects include several original revues of Broadway song and dance
numbers and original scripts, and fall productions include titles such as Liza and the Riddling Cave, The Curate
Shakespeare As You Like It, and The
Code Breaker. An audition is required. The six-week rehearsal process
culminates in four public performances.
This season The Western Stage Young Company will be introducing Callback, a new project for emerging actors ages 16 – 20. An audition is required to participate.
Interested students and parents should call The Western Stage at 759-6037 to schedule an audition appointment.
