Does your child have an interest in drama and the arts? Did they really enjoy being part of the school play? Did they get excited about performing in skits at church? Monticello Theatre Association is interested in helping your child explore their creative side during the MTA Summer Kids Workshops!

Each workshop will include a variety of stage work in order to prepare a show for their closing. Students will work on stage presence, characterization and body movement as well as assisting with costumes, make-up, props and set design for their show. Participants will have a great time “putting on a play.” It can be a fun time to “be someone else” — on a stage, with lights! 

Both closing programs will be open to the public.

“If you take a child to the theatre, not only will they practice empathy, but they might also laugh uproariously, or come home singing about science, or want to know more about history, or tell you what happened at school today, or spend all dinner discussing music, or learn how to handle conflict, or start becoming future patrons of the arts.”
