This year we are bringing our long-standing Pageant tradition to Valley West. Teenagers 13-17 are invited to join us for two weeks of learning and creating. The classes aim to develop physical theater skills and ensemble building foundations. The students will cultivate their creativity and find ways to express themselves, as they learn how to use their bodies and voices. Classes will be on stilt walking, puppetry, story-building and processional music. It will culminate in a public procession and outdoor spectacle performance on Saturday, August 14.
Please contact Laura Muñoz with questions and registration for Pageant in the Valley at laura@arcataplayhouse.org or call the Arcata Playhouse at (707) 822-1575
