FREE Student Performance at WFT



On Friday August 15, WFT will present two FREE student performances.

WFT's Youth Group will present "Into the Woods" Jr. at 6:30 p.m. This performance/class has been directed by Lisa Korak and John O'Neil and features Alisa Amador, Michelle Bornstein, Eliza Brennan, Emily Catalfamo, Monika Cormack, Marisol Getchell, Anika Hartje-Brissot, Tori Heinlein, Sebastion Kim, Jenna Napolitano, Madelyn O’Kelly, Haley Olmstead, Eleanor Richardson, Jeffrey Sewell, Zoe Virant, & Barbara Woodall.

WFT's Teen Group will present "Climactic Scenes from Classic Plays" - excerpts from "Antigone", "Mary Stuart", "Desire Under the Elms", and "A Streetcar Named Desire". This performance/class has been directed by Fran Weinberg and features Anne Dufault, Ben Gold, Wilmene Hercule, Tadesh Inagaki, Amanda Loewy, Paul McCallion, Laura Morell, Alma Prelec, Carlos Rojas, Lilia Rubin, Andrew Short, Becca Stevens, & Talia Weingarten.

The primary focus of our education program is supporting a child’s intellectual, emotional, creative, and social development through drama activities. Several of our students have enjoyed prominent national careers (such as Academy Award-winner Matt Damon). However, we believe true success is not measured by fame, but through instilling in our students lifelong values of creativity, compassion, and respect for others.

WFT audition based Performance Intensives are advanced performance classes that will showcase WFT student work with a free performance on Friday August 15 at the Wheelock Family Theatre.
