Announcing Zoomapalooza 2020
This unexpected pandemic has called into question so many aspects of our society - and in theater's case, live entertainment. What is Theater Now?
The Concern: The dismay and sense of loss my Worcester Academy students would feel during our planned tech and production weeks of Trap - where the Theater Troupe would have been together all the time, hanging out and making theater! And you all would have been attending our awesome play!
The Solution: Offer the Worcester Academy Theater Troupe & Community something awesome for every DAY & TIME we would have been performing our Spring Play!
The Result:
THEATER ZOOMAPALOOZA 2020!
Click on the above link to see all of the event info!
What is it: 8 Play Readings & 2 Professional Workshops
Who is it: 27+ Actors, 6 Student Directors, 4+ Award-Winning Writers.
And all the virtual audience we can invite!
All events are open to our community, so put it in your calendars and join in on any of the ones that catch your interest.
Already this has brought so many of us together - rehearsing, creating, and laughing - lots of laughing!
So check it out, put it in your calendars, support each other's shows, sign up/register for workshops & events, and click on the links that will bring us all together!
And so... Zoomapalooza Begins!
