Dank eines Zuschusses des Stadtrats von Dover in Höhe von 1.000 £ konnte das Dover Youth Theatre diesen August einen kostenlosen einwöchigen Kunst- und Filmworkshop von NEW HORIZONS in der Stadt veranstalten, der seinen Höhepunkt in einer kostenlosen öffentlichen Aufführung am Donnerstag, dem 24. August, um 19.30 Uhr im Rathaus von Dover findet.
Der international preisgekrönte Filmregisseur Jan Dunn, Herausgeber Tony Currell, West-End Musical Director Barney Ashworth (Mrs Henderson Presents, Sunny Afternoon, The Lion King) will join DYT Artistic Director Marie Kelly-Thomas, Director and Playwright Michael Thomas and Choreographer Tamzin Dunstone. Together they will work with participants aged 10-20 on scenes from West-End plays and shows and create short films.
