Overview
At TCAN, arts education is our priority – but your children will only know they’re having fun! Pocket Full of Tales Theatre Company presents brand-new, scripted original musicals as the leaping-off point for our Summer Musical Theatre Workshops. Kids try out creative art & set building techniques, learn new acting & singing styles and breathe life into their favorite stories – acting and dancing their way through a fun-filled week. On Friday, everyone’s a star as we perform for our friends and families.
Additional Information
For half-day workshops, please have your child bring a nut-free snack and a water bottle. For full-day workshops, your child must bring a nut-free lunch, two nut-free snacks, and a water bottle.
