2021-22 Theatre Season at Florida Memorial University!
We are working with Dr. Adrienne Cooper and the administration at Florida Memorial University (FMU) to implement a theatre program that will support the branding of FMU as a destination for the performing arts. Our biggest goal is to inspire the students to reach their full potential through involvement in the performing arts.
Our program will provide holistic learning experiences in which FMU students will learn how to become a triple threat (actor, singer, dancer) from industry professionals and specialists with a focus on script analysis, scene study, stage movement and characterization. Students will become familiar with the methodology of auditioning, theater production, rehearsal preparation, and resume building. They will also learn about other aspects of mounting a stage production including but not limited to costuming, make-up, sound, lights, media, and arts administration.
We'll be presenting a season of plays in the Lou Rawls Center for the Performing Arts that will serve both the FMU student body and community residents of all ages, abilities, and cultural and socioeconomic backgrounds. As a resident theatre company at FMU, we will provide a diverse range of theatre programming including but not limited to musicals, classic plays, play readings, acting classes, workshops, guest lectures, youth productions, and a theatre business training program (workforce development, theatre administration, producing, connecting STEM and theatre).
