So... the last post was about today, tomorrow and this weekend... this post is all about yesterday.

Twelve of our students got the singular opportunity to tour Three of the finest professional theatres in DC for the day thanks to Carey Lawless who arranged everything.

We started at the historical and renovated Ford's Theatre and got the tour backstage and received some amazing insider knowledge from a Q/A in the Board Room of Fords with Kristin Fox - Director of Programming.

Then the students got to go to the Harman Center (Shakespeare Theatre of DC) and have a personal tour of the newly built Harman Center and another personal Q/A with Deb Vandergrift (Production Manager) who explained the planning and design of the building/ theatre/ and facilities.

Next they traveled to the BRAND NEW Facilities of the Arena Stage complex. Complete with a insiders tour and Q/A with Ian Pool, General Manager/Production Manager,  toured all three stages, as well as the new costume shop and scene shop.

These are prestigious professional theatres and this is a rare opportunity that most outsiders never get. What an amazing opportunity to meet and ask questions with professionals. WOW!
