Summer Acting Intensive for ages 13–17: a four-week class culminating in performances of The Rover in the outdoor amphitheater in Maritime Heritage Park. (Dates and times below.)

FINAL AUDITIONS SATURDAY, JULY 14th

Students will train in the same acting methods we use to train our adult actors — acting technique, stage combat, games, and physical acting — and leave the intensive with great tools for the stage and screen.

The program culminates with an outdoor production of The Rover by Aphra Behn as the final show in show in Center for the Arts’ Open Air Summer Rep.

Scholarships Available

We have full ($600) and half ($300) scholarships available for students enrolling in our summer production by request, thanks to Skipping Stone Foundation — check box on audition form on July 14 to apply for one of our available scholarships.

The production of The Rover is part of our four-play Open Air Summer Rep series — all performances FREE to the public. A special reception, Friday August 24th at 6pm is a ticketed event with food, drinks, and reserved seating in the park.

The Rover is the best-known comedy of Restoration playwright Aphra Behn. The production will use our own edit/adaptation of the script, available mid-July.
