WELCOME TO THE WORK A Fort Heart Productions Scene Study Showcase
Step inside the rehearsal room on November 29th.
Our Advanced Scene Study Performance Troupe has spent the fall digging into text, taking risks, breaking rules, and discovering what happens when craft and courage collide. This isn't a polished facade - its the raw, electric middle. It's moment where a scene clicks. It's the moment where actors surprise even themselves. It's the moment where the work becomes the raw, authentic exchange between scene partners.
Join us for an intimate evening of bold storytelling, laughter, vulnerability, and the kind of magic that only happens when a room is alive and the audience is close enough to feel the heartbeat of the scene.
Welcome to the Work.
Witness the process.
