The Full Circle Theater Company has a new face: the Young Actors Theater Lab (YTAL).

Registration is currently underway for the following programs. Comedy of Errors (Production Workshop) for ages 8 through 18. Production workshops allow participants to learn first-hand what is involved in producing a show for our main stage. Eight weeks’ worth of rehearsals and various workshops including anything from makeup to stage combat, culminate in a production open to the public. All participants are guaranteed a place in the case or crew, as they prefer. Participation fee is $150. The time of the workshops vary, and the schedule is determined after consultation with participants’ calendars and conflicts. First rehearsal was April 23 with final performance June 17.
