Activities: Join director Sarah Malone for a supplementary non-musical play based on the theme from this year’s summer musical, Once Upon a Mattress. This program gives younger actors more direct attention and performance experience than they would receive from a full-scale musical. Participants will learn basic performance skills: volume, facing out, memorization, being a good audience member, characterization, and commitment. Rehearsals will take place alongside those for the mainstage production of Once Upon a Mattress. A Matinee performance will be held July 31 on stage at Foellinger Auditorium. This program is perfect for young actors who are interested in getting started in theatre but aren’t ready for the rigorous rehearsal and performance schedule of our regular Youth Summer Theatre production.
