Dear DFT Community,
It gives me great pleasure to announce that Desert Foothills Theater has a new Director of Education! Sandi Carll comes to us with extensive experience in creating a vibrant theater education program that teaches and inspires the creativity of young artists. We are fortunate beyond measure to have her join our staff as we open our doors on stage, in classes, summer camps, and more. Our young actors are ready to learn, play, and return to the stage and we are preparing amazing opportunities under Sandi's wise, fun, and passionate leadership. Watch for the Summer Camp offerings soon!

To this end, actors' temperatures are taken at rehearsals and hand sanitizing and masks are required. During stage performances, actors wear clear face shields.
The Holland Center, the home of Desert Foothills Theater is professionally cleaned and the theater receives and restrooms receive an additional cleaning before each performance. The audience size is smaller and theater seating is moveable to allow for social distance seating. Audience members are required to wear masks.
