This program includes a weekly after-school workshop and regular shows at the Covert Theatre. When they turn 18, Covert Teens automatically become Covert Players with access to our Block Workshops and opportunities to perform in professional Covert Theatre shows. This is a great potential pathway for those who want a career in the performing arts.
