Formerly the High School Production, this program follows the same template as our Mainstage shows — resulting in a full production experience. Participating students meet over the course of 6 weeks to rehearse, followed by 4 community performances and a free school performance. Teens of all area schools and recent high school graduates are welcome to audition for this full-length teen theatre production.

The cornerstone of the Education Program is a two-week full-day workshop focusing on all aspects of the performing arts (speech, movement, dance, and music).

Students meet at the Shane Center to learn about these aspects and to rehearse a musical production which will be presented to the community at the close of the workshop with 3 performances.

June: A two-week long full-day camp culminating in
a production of Pinocchio for grades K-5.

July: A two-week long full-day camp culminating in
a production of The Little Mermaid for grades K-8.

Shane Center staff work with students at Arrowhead Elementary, Pine Creek School, Gardiner Public School, and the Park and Gallatin County Home School Association to provide a performing arts opportunity in rural areas. During that week, students rehearse and perform a full production.

A total of 3 different classes are offered in the Winter, Spring, and Fall. Each class, hosted over 4 weeks, focuses on different elements of the performing arts.

Students ages 13-18 explore contemporary social issues and prepare an artistic performance for the community and their peers culminating in 3 public performances. By encouraging students to openly address difficult topics, bridges can be formed that mitigate feelings of social isolation.
