EASTCONN’s Summer Musical Theater Program begins in July! Save the date for this five-week extravaganza of acting, singing, dancing, costuming, makeup application, prop and set construction, learning and FUN! This highly affordable program (formerly the CTAA Summer Musical Theater Program) features five weeks of full-day, hands-on learning in theater production. Students in grades 4-12 will take part in all phases of creating a full-length musical theater production to be performed on stage at the beautiful Capitol Theater. Under the guidance of working professionals, students will build sets, sew costumes, use technology, research their characters and the show, and create advertising that will bring the show to life. They also will practice the vital skills of team-building, communication, leadership, collaboration and professionalism that will impact all areas of their lives. The program will include walking field trips as well as guest speakers. The program begins on July 10, 2017, and will culminate in three show performances on August 11 and 12! We are currently finalizing the show selection, and will be in touch as soon as it’s decided. We can’t wait to spend the summer with your amazing children. Questions?
