Program Details:

Shakespeare for Young Designers offers an opportunity for students entering 7th through 12th grade to explore scenic design, costume design, and production strategies in the context of Shakespearean text. This program incorporates elements of the professional design process with students creating their own original text-based design. Students will learn from and work alongside professionals to explore and develop their own approach to storytelling through design. SYD students attend GRSF’s two Shakespeare productions with their class. All materials are included to render designs for King Lear.

If you are planning to request a scholarship for your student, please contact Aaron A. Young (managingdirector@grsf.org) before registering.
