For young performers dreaming of being at the heart of the creative process, Theatre Under The Stars<\/strong>\u00a0is making the impossible possible! This summer, TUTS Education<\/strong> is giving high school and college-bound actors an unprecedented opportunity: to be the first voices to bring brand-new musicals to life in just two weeks!<\/p>\n The TUTS Education New Works Series<\/strong> is a first for TUTS, an immersive program where students collaborate with professional writers, composers, directors, and TUTS Artistic Staff including Artistic Director, Dan Knechtges<\/strong>, and Associate Artistic Director, Laura Peete<\/strong>, to develop original musicals from the ground up. Over two exhilarating weeks, students won\u2019t just rehearse\u2014they\u2019ll shape the story, influence the music, and create performances that will serve as the foundation for the next generation of musical theatre.<\/p>\n \u201cEvery musical begins in a room with writers, actors and other creatives. This is where a page begins to take on a three-dimensional life. With this New Works Series<\/strong>, TUTS is offering students the opportunity to be in that room and to gain an experience like none other,\u201d said Peete.<\/p>\n Each week, students will focus on two pre-selected musicals that are in the development phase. Students will work on one of the two selected musicals while receiving direction from a Broadway-caliber creative team. They\u2019ll participate in demo recordings, refine their performances, and present their work to an exclusive audience\u2014including industry professionals, producers, casting directors, media, and influencers\u2014offering a rare and potentially career-launching experience.<\/p>\n Similar to the TUTS Texas All-State Musical that took place last year, this new program is one more way TUTS is offering an elevated level of performing arts education where students are able to experience many real-world parts of the creative process and hone skills that will serve them in their future careers.<\/p>\n \u201cThis program provides an entirely new avenue for students to learn about the creative process, further develop teamwork skills and elevate their craft,\u201d said TUTS Director of Education, Jacob Shideler<\/strong>. The TUTS Education New Works Series<\/strong> will be offered July 28 through August 2<\/strong> and August 4\u20139<\/strong> and is open to high school aged students, which includes incoming Freshman through graduated Seniors.
