ADDITIONAL OPPORTUNITIES

CLASS OF 2014 - Hippodrome Young Critics Program

Juniors - below is detailed information about the program. I am looking for one representative and want to submit the name by September 17th. 2012. Karina Watson and Tori Brown have both participated if you would like to contact them to get information from their perspective.

"Good Morning –
WELCOME BACK  from Hippodrome Foundation, Inc. (HFI)
I am sending  you information about the Hippodrome Foundation’s Young Critics Program and hope  you will contact me if you have any questions. 

My name is  Barb Wirsing and as most of you already know, I am the Education Director for  HFI. Our mission is to increase community access to the arts – and one way to do  that is through our Young Critics Program. The Young Critics Program not only  provides access to entertainment – it encourages/assists local students with an  interest in writing to improve their skills. For the 2012/2013 season, HFI has  again hired professional critic, Geoffrey Himes, to lead and instruct 10  students every semester. 

HFI will  provide critics with two complimentary tickets each to three productions at the  Hippodrome and in exchange, participants will write a review and submit it to  Geoffrey Himes. Geoffrey will send back edits to each student via email and  there will be one or two rewrites before the review is finished. Finished reviews are posted on HFI’s website and can be found at www.hippodromefoundation.org.

Attendance is  mandatory and the dates are listed below. Geoffrey will teach a class at our offices
for an hour before each production  plus a preliminary class– we serve sandwiches so nobody will miss dinner. The  dates for the upcoming fall semester are as follows:

Tuesday, November 13 - Preliminary Class (6:30PM to 8:00PM)
Tuesday, November 27 - Million Dollar Quartet (6:30PM to 7:30PM - show begins at 8:00PM)
Saturday, December 15 - Nutcracker (6:00PM to 7:00PM - show begins at 7:30PM)
Tuesday, January 22 - Beauty and the Beast (6:00 PM to 7:00PM - begins at 7:30PM)

High school critics should be juniors and 100% committed to this program and must attend all mandatory dates and classes.

It is a very individual experience and some of our critics write very well - if a student is a great writer, his/her skills will still improve through this program. And past participants have really enjoyed  meeting students from other area schools.
