With education at the core of our mission, Crane River Theater Company launched our Explore Theater classes in the summer of 2009 in association with the Kearney Park and Recreation Department. Over one hundred kids, ranging kindergarten through high school, received an exciting hands-on theater experience. While the younger kids tackled the craft of theater through puppetry, fairy tales, music and choreography, the high school students set out to prepare an entire audition package that included a monologue, song, resume and headshot. The classes were extremely well received and we expect to more than double that enrollment this summer with twelve classes available. Encouraging creativity in our youth is essential.  A new educational opportunity we will bring to fruition this Summer is the Shadow Internship Program. This program will allow selected high school students to “shadow” professionals in the areas of artistic direction, musical direction and stage management.  A unique opportunity that offers an insider’s look into the world of theater production.
