IT’S ALMOST HERE!
REGISTER NOW FOR THE 2026 SUMMER CHILDREN’S THEATER PROGRAM!
We are about a month away from the start of our 2026 Summer Children’s Theater Program! If you haven’t signed up yet, register now for one of the few spots still open!
As a reminder, here’s what will be happening in this workshop, directed and facilitated by the Brooklyn Acting Lab. The program invites young artists to explore theater, history, and community through a joyful, immersive creative process. Over the course of three weeks, children collaborate on a scripted performance written by BAL artist and playwright Jenna Scotti.
Our 2026 production will transport students into the revolutionary past of Shelter Island, where they'll uncover the stories of the Havens family and transform history into a vibrant, original piece of theater. The workshop culminates in a celebratory performance for friends, family, and the community on July 31.
Details for this summer’s workshop:
Dates: July 13–31
Schedule: Monday–Friday, 9:00am–12:00pm
Final Performance: Friday, July 31
Ages: Children 6–12 at the start of the program
Location: Shelter Island History Museum
Now in its fifth year, and made possible by the Elizabeth Pedersen Fund and the Victoria Loconsolo Foundation, Inc., this cherished part of the Shelter Island summer connects children to the island’s history, builds friendships, and allows participants to experience the joy of live theater.
