Several members of HHS Drama Club had the immense honor of working with Quincy Community Theatre Artistic Director Brandon Thomsen in an engaging and insightful Acting the Song Workshop Wednesday afternoon.
Our actors learned so many immediately useful techniques to act out the stories within their solos for their upcoming spring showcase!
We are so thankful to Mr. Thomsen for taking the time to work with us and for making us stronger actors and storytellers!
