The NEW Gaithersburg Inclusive Showcase

60's MayorIn Gaithersburg, MD

About Scripted Companies

The companies are directed by trained theatre professionals. An original script is developed during the rehearsal process through improvisation techniques. A play is scripted and then blocked, memorized by the actors and performed for the public. The final production is designed to showcase each actor’s unique talents.

Each company will be limited to 15 people.

Due to overwhelming response from the community, ArtStream is proud to premiere the Gaithersburg Inclusive Showcase. The Showcase is designed for students who are new to the process of inclusive theatre. New actors get to experience what it is like to create and perform a show while gaining theatre arts skills like improvisation, vocal projection, dance techniques and many more! This 4-month commitment will culminate in a final performance for the public.

Inclusive Theatre Companies require an audition in order to participate.
