Join Fountain Hills Recreation and Fountain Hills Theater for a new youth program, Explore Theater.

Each week participants will be introduced to a new and different experience in the magical world of theater, in an actual working theater. They will explore singing, dancing, acting and filming commercials on-camera.

Taught by Fountain Hills Theater Director of Education, Debby Rosenthal, a member of Actors Equity Association.

“Youth who are involved in the arts have higher school motivation, engagement in class, self-esteem and life satisfaction while learning to connect with each other, resulting in improved social interactions,” according to the event announcement. Explore Theater, a four-week introductory class to theater for youth ages 7-11, will take place at the Fountain Hills Theater on Mondays beginning April 18. Cost is$125.
