Weston Drama Workshop is a nonprofit youth theater organization established to provide participants an extraordinary education in and appreciation of live theater. We cultivate a caring, respectful, collaborative environment that encourages those involved to attain their highest levels of excellence – both onstage and behind the scenes – in professionally directed, fully realized theatrical productions. The culmination of affordable, engaging performances enriches our community and fosters lifelong friendships through the creation and celebration of dramatic art.
As a summer program for over 50 years, Weston Drama Workshop offers performers and audiences an array of options to enjoy and experience live theater. While originally a program limited to high school and college students, WDW also offers a musical theater program for middle school students (known as the “morning program”) and a theater program for young audiences.
The night shows engage high school and college students in the challenge of presenting main stage musicals and a black box theater production. WDW is a summer tradition that begins with rehearsals in mid-June and challenges the participant community to deliver high-quality choral arrangements, dance choreography, and solo performance.
With a program geared for elementary school, middle school, high school and college-age performers, WDW offers a unique opportunity for participants to learn from one another and take their craft to new levels ... view more »
