14th ANNUAL STUDENT THEATER WORKSHOP: 2020!
The show TBD, directed by Robert LeMaire
MISSION: To provide a safe, nurturing, and professional atmosphere for ages 10-16 to rehearse and perform. No previous experience necessary and there are no auditions for admittance since ELTC believes that the theatrical experience should be accessible to everyone.
Past productions include, Alice in Wonderland, The Little Princess, Hans Brinker or The Silver Skates, Connecticut Yankees in Queen Guenever's Court, Little Women, Storybook Theater,1,001 Arabian Nights, The Dancing Princesses, Tom Sawyer, Detective, Dracula's Guests, Robin Hood, and Story Theater were performed by students in front of standing-room only audiences! This year, for 9 sessions, 12 students, ages 10-16, will once more have the opportunity to work with ELTC's professional staff: Robert LeMaire, Lee O'Connor, and Gayle Stahlhuth.
Workshop dates are Tues.-Fri.: June 23-26; Mon.-Thurs. June 29-30, July 1-2; and Mon. July 6. Times are 12:30 pm - 3:30 pm. On the first day, June 23, parents/guardians may arrive a little early to talk to the staff, but class will begin at 12:30. Who knows what the weather will bring in 2020, but we can shuffle the schedule around if school lasts longer due to snow days. The performance is on Mon., July 6 at 8:00 pm.
Admission to the performance is FREE. Fee: $200.00 per student. Location is the First Presbyterian Church, 500 Hughes Street. Contact the theater for more details and to receive a Workshop Form or Click Here to Download the Admission Application.
My daughter had always wanted to try theater, and when your company started a summer workshop for students, she was thrilled. At first, she just wanted to work behind the scenes, but once she got there, and with the encouragement of Gayle and Lee, she jumped right in and did 5 different parts. She gained a great deal of confidence in being on stage. It was the highlight of her summer and she can't wait until next year. - Joanne Klineburger

Rob LeMaire in ARSENIC AND OLD LACE
Workshop leader: Robert LeMaire is heading up the workshop. During the 1990’s he coordinated Education Programs, including running the Junior Apprenticeship Program, at Historic Cold Spring Village in Cape May County. He has performed with ELTC since 2001, and his love of acting led him to directing. For the Ocean City High School Drama Guild, he was the assistant director for Robin Hood, Legally Blonde: The Musical, A Christmas Carol, The Man Who Came to Dinner, and Bye-Bye Birdie. He directed Pride and Prejudice, The Addams Family: The Musical, Stage Door, Footloose: The Musical, Arsenic and Old Lace, and Spamalot. Recently, he was the assistant director for ELTC's Arsenic and Old Lace, and also portrayed Teddy in the same production. In October 2018, he, along with other Theater Education Directors, were honored by the New Jersey Theatre Alliance.
Technical Director Lee O’Connor, and Artistic Director Gayle Stahlhuth will also be on hand. In the past, actors currently performing in ELTC’s mainstage productions have helped out, and we’re looking to incorporate at least one of these artists again in 2020.
