Footloose Theatre Programs is excited to share something new this winter for kids/teens ages 8-18! We are launching a FREE Winter Workshop occurring weekly from the end of January to the end of March. Students will experience and learn scene acting, directing, stage management, and play fun theatre games over 8 weeks. The workshop will culminate in a showcase production of the vignette play A Night Under the Stars By Tracy Wells.
The program will take place at “A Space for Discovery” inside the ViaPort Rotterdam Mall (note: this is not our usual Albany Barn location).
