Through the three-part Young Designers in the Spotlight (YDS) program, Orlando REP will provide students with an opportunity to create theatrical design inspired by a narrative text of their teacher’s choice, with guidance and inspiration from working technical theatre professionals.

Students then create research/inspiration boards for the design of their choosing, and craft 2D or 3D final design projects. Part 3: Students and teachers complete an evaluation, which outlines their learning and measures the impact of the program. Final designs will be submitted to Orlando REP to be featured on the REP’s blog and social media. Please see the attached Lesson Plan for further detail.
