The Directors Workshop is a program at Theatre of Western Springs to encourage the development of directorial and acting skills, and technical proficiency.  Generally, it is a collection or two or more one-act or short plays directed by members of the Directors' Workshop program, performed by TWS Actives who have completed at least their initial studio workshop training, and crewed by TWS volunteers.  There is no admission fee.   Donations to the theatre are always welcome.
