YOUNG ADULT STORY THEATER WITH MAKE KEENE

In the 1960s, Second City founding director Paul Sills shocked the Chicago theater scene with something new and instantly timeless - actors acting out fairy tales set to Folk Rock on bare, dramatically-lit stages. And now, your kids can stage their own Story Theater in the historic Sills Barn in Door County!  

Over the course of five beautiful summer days led by Sills’ grandson Make Keene, students will explore Story Theater using Viola Spolin's theater games! Instruments encouraged, costumes provided.
