Come learn directing skills from a seasoned director, and The Merc’s founder, Carolanne Steinebach. No experience necessary! Carolanne will lead actors in scene study, how to block the actors’ movement through scenes, and how to communicate with actors and a design team. She will begin with analyzing a script and move participants through the entire process of directing a production — all the way to opening night. Advance registration required by July 1.
