Do you know any 10 to 16 year olds who would love the
opportunity to go to Theatre School for two weeks this summer? The team
that brought That's Chicago to the Regency Theatre last year has now created
a two week Theatre School for 32 teenagers of Grand Bahama. The school will present two public performances of the funny show, Twinderella, on July 13th
and 14th, 2007.
Please note that spaces are limited and we anticipate they will go quite
quickly.
Please forward this to anyone you think may be interested.
