What is happening with City Lights!
Dear City Lights Friends and Family,
City Lights Youth Theatre is finishing up another fall semester with our "sharings," small performances for family, friends and invited guests. If you are interested in a particular class for the spring and would like to attend a sharing, please call Shaena at 212-262-0200 to RSVP.
We are also gearing up for the spring semester. One of the highlights for the spring is a new songwriting class, which is the first step in the development of City Lights' 2010 original, student-written Mainstage Musical.
In an effort to better impact the environment, City Lights is reducing its print consumption. The usual mailing brochure is now available here for viewing. You will also be able to fully register online on MONDAY Debember 15th.
.Stay tuned for more details!
The Core Program provides age-appropriate classes in acting, musical theatre and playwriting in an after-school and weekend workshop format. Students perform in a season of productions produced in a variety of venues, including our on-site Studio Theatre. City Lights guarantees that at least 50% of our students receive need-based financial aid through City Lights Scholarship Fund.
Find out more about our Core Program at: Class Descriptions and Schedule
* Theatre-in-the-Classroom – an interdisciplinary approach to the arts, which connects our successful drama-immersion methodology to your curriculum.
* Playwriting – solid literacy components within every residency.
* Process-Based Sharing – culminations rich in the spirit of celebrating the journey students take with learning.
* Site-Specific Design – residencies reflecting each individual school’s mission.
* New York City’s Most Talented Teaching Artists – the extraordinary gifts our professional artists share with your students in the classroom today will be the same craft they deliver to an audience on a professional stage tonight.
