City at Peace DC announces auditions for their summer Street Theatre program! Spend your summer singing, dancing, acting, working backstage as Stage Managers, Wardrobe, Sets and Properties designers/builders, Sound Engineers and Theatre Technicians and make a difference in your life and the lives of other teens in the DMV!
The summer Street Theatre program is a six week summer program that allows participants to examine some of the issues facing young people in the DMV and gives them tools for creating steps toward positive change. Youth ages 14-21 are eligible to audition. Youth will also receive training from adult professionals in the areas of acting, singing, dancing, stage management, sound design, wardrobe and costumes, set and properties design, marketing and promotions and leadership development.
The program will culminate in an original musical written and performed by the participants for audiences, outside and in recreation centers across the city. This program runs Monday thru Friday from 10am until 4pm. It begins Monday, June 27, 2011 and ends Friday, August 5, 2011. It is open to young people from DC, Maryland and Virginia. There is no cost to participate.
The audition process is simple. There is nothing to prepare. There are survey forms to fill out, theatre games, a simple dance combination and some singing. City at Peace supplies all of the work. They don’t accept applicants based on talent alone as they are looking for young people who are interested in working together to find solutions to the problems facing our society and their lives. All young people need to do is be willing to go through the process and be able to commit.
