Come battle melodramatic lizards and form a new queendom alongside magical creatures outside the walls of Camelot!

Through direction students will learn and work to put a show together from start to end, and will be encouraged to voice opinions on their visions for characters and blocking. Students will also learn about the thoughts behind other theatrical areas like directing, stage management, and scenic design. Additionally, students will learn the basics of staged combat and movement through professional instruction from Boston Based Fight Director Lauren Squier in order to bring safe choreography to battle these dragons!
