Hershey Area Playhouse, 830 Cherry Drive, Hershey, is expanding its programming to include virtual opportunities for the summer, including a Broadway workshop series.
The Playhouse will host Give Back to Broadway on Monday, Aug. 17, at 7 p.m. This event is the first in a series of workshops that will pair the Playhouse with professionals from Broadway.
Through the series, participants will have access to experts in a variety of fields, including orchestra, costumes, acting, dance, and more. In the online sessions, Broadway professionals will share what they do, how they learned and honed their skills and how young people can pursue a career. The workshops will also include a question-and-answer time.
The first guest will be Hershey's Will Curry, who has had a career as a conductor, violist, violinist, educator and orchestrator. Curry recently worked as music director and conductor of the "Miss Saigon" national tour and previously held the positions of violist and assistant conductor with the Broadway revivals of "My Fair Lady," "Miss Saigon," "Fiddler on the Roof," and "Les Miserables." Curry previously worked as the associate conductor for the Mirvish's "Les Miserables" and the assistant conductor/concertmaster for the "Les Miserables" national tour.
There is a fee to participate. To register for the workshop, readers may visit http://www.hersheyareaplayhouse.com.
