Acting, Expression, Set Changing, Dance & Skills
Woodworking: Learn tools and build stage sets.
Sewing: Learn to sew costumes & curtains.
Tech: Learn basics of the audio board and lighting, the coordination of set changes and all the Tech operations.
Cost: I will front you a membership in TekVenture as rehearsals begin. You will not get free tickets for performances but they will be very affordable, because our expenses are low. Because you will have a family membership, while your actor rehearses, you can use tools to weld, work clay, do 3D-printing, electronics, blacksmithing, stained glass & woodwork or hang out.
Play while your actor rehearses!
