We offer a Theatre Literacy as part of our Cerebral Diversity program, an immersive class where students explore the art of technical theatre. Students learn prop, costume, set, and lighting design, while also gaining experience in running productions, including a fall play and spring musical. They will learn the art of crafting intricate and realistic props, from simple handheld objects to elaborate set pieces, utilizing a wide range of materials and techniques. In addition, students will explore the world of costume design and construction, honing their skills in pattern-making, sewing, and accessorizing to create stunning and authentic costumes that enhance the characters on stage. In addition, students can audition for a full-scale spring musical!
