Gerrard Teen Guild – Monthly Meetings

Teen Guild is for teens ages 12 – 18 interested in theater, both onstage and offstage. We meet the 2nd Sunday of each month from 2:00 to 4:00 PM. We work on different theater skills to expose them to all aspects of theater.

In June, we have a 2 week theater workshop that culminates in 2 fabulous performances. The students do it all, acting, lights, set, costumes, and makeup. The cost is $175 for the workshop.
