Program Details

Location: Alternating between The Hive Collaborative 677 Hamline Ave N, St. Paul & DSAMn Conference Room 668 Transfer Rd. St Paul

Pre-requisite: must have taken a previous DSAMn theater class or have significant previous performing experience.

Class Description: DSAMn’s Saturday morning acting troupe is a dedicated group of performers with Down syndrome, many of whom have been working together since 2021. Past performances have included original plays written by the students as well as adaptations of Shakespeare’s Romeo and Juliet and A Midsummer Night’s Dream. This class is led by theater practitioners and performers Lizz Windnagel and Shelby Richardson. This class emphasizes collaboration, creativity, and problem-solving skills.

Space in this class is very limited to new participants. We require students have either taken our Sunday theater class for several sessions or have extensive performing experience. Please email lizz@dsamn.org if you are interested in taking this class for the first time.

DSAMn’s advanced acting troupe will be rehearsing for a performance of student playwright’s production, Trouble in Paradise, which will be performed at the Hive Collaborative in St. Paul on May 24th at 2 pm, with a dress rehearsal on a weeknight evening leading up to the performance.

Students must be available on May 24th, as well as for dress rehearsal, and rehearsal on Saturday morning May 17th. We also ask that students only sign up if they can make most of the rehearsals.
