On December 16, we celebrated our 53rd Anniversary! To all the actors, writers, directors, musicians, stage managers, artists, producers, staff and audiences that have contributed to this wonderful community through the years, we say thank you.
Team StarKid, creators of "A Very Potter Musical," "A Very Potter Sequel," and "Holy Musical, B@man" will be debuting a brand new sketch show, "Airport for Birds" at UP Comedy Club starting January 27th, 2013. Here's a preview of what's in the works for the new show. Tickets go on sale Wednesday, December 19.
In light of the anticipated closure of Toronto-area schools on Tuesday December 18, The Second City will open the doors of its Training Centre (70 Peter St., Toronto) for a one-day Youth Improv Camp for students in Grades 1 - 8.
The Improv Camp will begin at 9am (drop off begins at 8:30am) and wrap up at 5pm. It will be a fun-filled day in which students will learn and participate in improv games led by experienced instructors, and enjoy a performance by Second City's Education troupe. No prior experience in improv is needed.
The Second City Training Centre offers Youth & Education programmes throughout the year. The Second City's Education Program holds performances and workshops for thousands of Ontario students each year. Our award winning curriculum-based workshops receive raves from students as well as teachers and principals. The Second City's Youth & Teen Camps explore the fundamentals of improvisation comedy, and help children access creativity, boost self-confidence, and develop spontaneity and playfulness.
One-Day Improv Camp: Tuesday December 18th, 9am - 5pm
Cost: $20 + tax per student.
Advance registration is required.
Parents can register at www.secondcitytrainingcentre.com or by calling 416-340-7270
