Pop-Up Theatrics is a new theatre platform founded by Rebecca Lea McCarthy. The programs, as described below, will work with OSHER communities, starting in Utah and, it is hoped, brought to other OSHER communities throughout the US.
Please visit this page again for more information. We will return to operations as soon as it is safe. Mahalo!

Participants will learn a variety of games, including freeze tag, actor switch, actor nightmare, this is your life, the alphabet game, dubbed movie, forward and backward, and a wealth of other improv games.
