Musical Theater

danOver the course of this 10-week workshop, Dan Kitrosser leads six participants, ages 6 and up, through a musical and lyrical journey from brainstorming, to writing, to performing on stage. Together, the group writes and performs one show. This workshop culminates on the last day in a live performance for family and friends. Several pieces that emerge from the musical theater workshops will be chosen to be performed at Writopia's Spring Theater festival in May, 2010.
