Donations at the door. (No reservations taken)
Heartland’s senior acting program struts its stuff on stage at Heartland with four showcases, two in the summer and two in the fall. Enjoy talented seniors performing scenes and original short plays for just a donation at the door.
The performances, open to the public, are set on Heartland’s stage. Doors will open at 20 minutes before performance. There will be no reservations taken for the Showcase, first come – first served. Admittance is a donation to the Young at Heartland program.
These seniors have participated in a two-month acting workshop and have prepared brief scenes depicting some of the opportunities that life can bring. This troupe is usually seen “on the road” at area nursing and retirement homes, and for other church and civic groups. These Showcase performances are the only ones held at the theatre. See Young at Heartland’s fall touring schedule.
Sandra Zielinski is the workshop instructor, assisted by Terri Whisenhunt, with Ann B. White the program director.
About Young at Heartland:
Young at Heartland strives to build an ensemble of seniors who share the values of continuing education, creative self-expression, and community outreach. It is designed to accommodate and support performers’ comfort levels with memorization. We aim to find appropriate pathways to showcase performers’ gifts in a fun, stress-free atmosphere. This workshop is supported in part by a grant from the McLean County Arts Regranting Program. See more about Young at Heartland.
