Youth Conservatory

The Kay Meek Youth Conservatory intensive sets each actor/student on a learning path that encourages them to excel as young artists and ensemble members. The creative team will develop an individualized program for each student that showcases their strengths and encourages growth in all areas of their craft. Students will be paired with a character, or set of characters, and corresponding Character tracks. This process focuses on the development of their technique in dance, voice and acting, as well as in leadership and teamwork.

The Kay Meek Youth Conservatory introduces students to all aspects of the theatre craft. During their three or four week intensive, students  will participate in the building of an entire production, including: character development, production design, and production management. Building a show from scratch, during this short and intense time, creates an incredible experience for each participant. The Conservatory  has been developed to ensure it equally supports both individual growth and team building – effectively demonstrating how working collaboratively leads to greater success. Students will not only leave with greater skills, but with a sense of trust, support, and lasting bonds.
