Youth Performing Art Classes with Lizzie Bowman
Lizzie Bowman comes from a small school in Ohio and graduated with a degree in Musical Theatre. She first came to Montana to work with Missoula Children’s Theatre. Red Lodge was one of the towns on tour and she's been here ever since. She is very excited to offer these workshops to the community and also can be seen helping with events at the Roosevelt Center. Classes are Sundays, 2-3:45 pm in April. Registration is for all 4 classes.
