Reader’s theatre is performance of the voice. The actors usually tell the story without the benefit of costumes, props, sets, movement or memorized lines. It became popular during and after World War II when people had limited resources to produce regular plays. Originally done by actors dressed in black sitting on stools, there are no rules.

Sleeping Bear Dunes National Lakeshore was established in 1970 to preserve its many outstanding natural features. The National Park Service protects the forests, beaches, dunes, and ancient glacial phenomena along 72 miles of Lake Michigan shoreline for the benefit and enjoyment of the public, to protect it from developments and uses that would destroy its aesthetic, scientific and recreational value. The Lakeshore's historic maritime and agricultural landscapes are of a size and quality that are unique on the Great Lakes and rare elsewhere on the U.S. coastline. Located only 25 miles from Traverse City, the Lakeshore is accessible year-round for all to enjoy.  Winter Internship Positions...
