THE 2008 YOUNG ACTORS CONSERVATORY

The Young Actors Conservatory is a unique four-week summer intensive that offers conservatory-style training for Houston-area middle and high school students. Led by recognized theatre professionals, YAC classes and laboratories encourage participants to explore every facet of dramatic production.


Using a total immersion method, students will develop scripts; create costumes, sets and props; design lights and sound; learn movement and voice techniques; and rehearse and perform roles. Building on what they’ve learned, students will focus on a central theme to conceptualize, write, design and perform a new theatre piece, combining the students’ own material with texts taken from the work of well-known writers. The program culminates in a fully realized production of this original work at Stages Repertory Theatre.
