Dunes Arts Summer Theatre is now registering three sessions of youth theatre education programs. All programs take place at the historic summer theatre campus at 288 Shady Oak Drive in Michiana Shores, where young people have discovered the joys of theatre arts for more than 70 years.
The first three-week session, “Creative Drama and Play Creation,” will be held June 12-June 28 for students ages 8-12. Classes will meet Mondays and Wednesdays from 1-3 p.m. CST.

Tuition is $200 and some scholarships are available.
The second three-week session, “Introduction to Musical Theatre,” will be held July 10-26 for students ages 8-12. Classes will meet Mondays and Wednesdays from 1-3 p.m. CST. Students will develop musical performance skills, including vocalization, song interpretation and movement. No previous performance experience is required.

The Youth Theatre Mentoring Program is offered for the first time this year for students 13+. The program is designed for students with previous theatre experience who want to refine their skills by working on monologues, songs, etc. for auditions and college admissions. Six sessions of individual or small group instruction will be scheduled with professional actors. Tuition is $200 and some scholarships are available.
A Student Showcase for family and friends will be held August 10 at 11 a.m. CST.
