Horizons Theater Workshops

These workshops provide mostly middle school students with training in theater and creative writing. Our goal is to support student’s imagination and creative agency.  Using fun, engaging exercises, students learn the necessary skills to present theatrical performances to their family and friends. These weekly workshops culminate in student’s performing their original writing.  Each workshop site performs two shows—a holiday performance in December and a full-length production in spring.

Our Methodology 

At The Modell Lyric we know seeing live performance coupled with training in the arts can transform a young person’s life. Our in-school and summer programs in dance, theatre, music, and creative writing are supported by the belief that every person has a unique and important story to share. Just as Shakespeare wrote contemporary, relevant dramas for Elizabethan England, increased involvement in the arts can reflect the joys and struggles of our communities in new, compelling ways.
