The EmilyAnn Theatre was founded to provide a permanent home for Shakespeare Under the Stars, now in it's 17th season. SUS is the only high school accredited Shakespearean theatre in the United States. Another unique feature is that all acting roles are filled by children no older than their graduated Senior summer. There are no actors of college age or older. Also, there is no minimum age. This year our youngest actor is 5years old. It is not uncommon for children to participate for 10+ years, as have two of this year's cast who began when they were 4 and have now reached Senior and Sophmore in High School. The program draws part of it's strength from the active recruitment of students from outside the Wimberley Valley. This summer we have 54 children from Wimberley, San Marcos, Canyon Lake, Dripping Springs, San Antonio, Austin and Justin. The long term goal of Shakespeare Under the Stars is to continue to raise the level of theatrical experience provided to our students. In 2006, we have been able to take the first steps down the road. We have engaged professional Artistic and Technical Direction which is of the highest quality. We have also initiated the first solid steps toward partnering with various colleges and universities. Mr. Joe Aldridge, Professor of Theatre and Technical Director in the Theatre Department of the University of Nevada - Las Vegas, has overall responsibility for all aspects of the technical component. These three professionals bring a level of talent and National credibility to the EmilyAnn which is unmatched. The college/university partnering is especially exciting. Because of the strong history of the program and the credentials of our Directors, Texas State University will offer 3 credit hours to any of their technical theatre students participating in the program. The EmilyAnn is excited about and very proud of this educational partnering.
