Williamson County Parks: Wednesday Workshops: Stage Management

If your teen has ever been curious about what happens behind the curtain, this Wednesday Workshop is a great low-commitment introduction to stage management. Held at the Williamson County Enrichment Center in Franklin, this single two-hour session covers the essential behind-the-scenes responsibilities that keep a production running — managing space, time, resources, and people across audition, rehearsal, and performance processes. It's aimed at teens ages 12 through 18 who want to understand how theatre actually comes together from an organizational standpoint, whether they're interested in pursuing stage production professionally or just want a broader picture of how live performance works. At $30 for a single session (or bundled at 4 for $100 if your family is sampling several workshops), it's an affordable way to test the waters. The evening format — 5:30 to 7:30 p.m. on June 17 — makes it easy to fit into a busy summer schedule. Families also explore Wednesday Workshops: Youth Improv and STAR Camp Broadway, or Musical Theatre Dance — all part of Williamson County Parks' theatre series — for similar options nearby.
