• In-depth professional level workshops for students and teachers with the opportunity to learn from several of the nearly 40 theatre professional participating in the Workshop Day.
• Roundtable discussions between the Workshop Day’s organizers and educators.
• An emphasis on technical theatre for educators with hands-on activities in both lights and sound.

Please mark February 27th on your calendar now, and don’t hesitate to call or e-mail with any questions. We look forward to seeing you on campus for another exciting High School Theatre Workshop Day!

If you are interested in sharing a bus with another school, please indicate this on your registration form.

Buses are not allowed to park on campus all day, so they need to leave and then come back for pick-up at the end of the day. If your school is bringing a van, parking should be available in the Union Parking Structure, and we are able to offer free parking passes to schools requiring them to exit the lot. Please indicate your need for a pass on the registration form; passes will be available at the registration table on February 27.

Lunch can be bought at the Union Atrium Food Court on the first floor. Half the students will have lunch during Session C, and the other half during Session D. Students may purchase lunches at the food court or bring their own.
