THE SPOT YOUNG COMPANY

THE SPOT YOUNG COMPANY is a tuition-free project featuring Wood River Valley students (grades 9-12) led by program alumni and professional mentors. It aims to educate and empower young artists through collaboration and commitment on stage and behind the scenes. The Spot Young Co. culminates with a fully staged production and offers competitive training in acting and technical theater.

SPOT YOUNG COMPANY 2020

We miss you! We want to get together and create some theater magic with you all. The world being what it is, the Young Company project is going to look a little different this year than in years past! Let’s embrace it! As it stands, we intend to marry a combination of virtual and in-person rehearsals to produce a semi-live streamed showcase comprising both solo and small ensemble performances. We feel this model will lend itself to in-depth one-on-one training. Our expectations of your professionalism,  compassion, punctuality and preparedness will of course remain very high. We are stoked to get started and we hope you are too!

​

*Rehearsals will be in the evenings November 9 - December 13 depending on your role in the show and your pending conflicts.

*Show will stream week of 12/14/2020
