The SCV Theatre Project is currently serving over 70 COC students in our second series of Master Classes and workshops from top teachers and artists in the theatre. This amazing summer theatre training program brings Internationally & Nationally recognized Master Teachers in all spects of theatre; Acting, Musical Theatre, Voice, Movement and more to local students and community members for community college prices. For a about $22.00 per unit students can study at COC with artists who would cost hundreds of dollars to study with individually. The cost of bringing these teachers to Santa Clarita is fully underwritten by the SCV Theatre Project and our educational sponsors. The program, in it's second year, is generously sponsored by Lou and Rita Garasi, McDonalds of Santa Clarita, and Melissa and Jerry Wharton, founders of the Appalachian Children's Theatre in Virginia. The Whartons were so impressed with the program, they brought four of their top students to observe the classes and attend private sessions with several of our teachers! In the Fall, The Theatre Project will be bringing our classes east with a series of workshops supported by ACT and several Virginia arts organizations. It's very exciting for us as we bring top training to underserved communities on the west coast and on the east. We are still seeking Educational Sponsors to Complete this Summer's program.
