This weekend, Bay Street Theater is hosting two outdoor workshops live and in-person on the grounds of the Sag Harbor Whaling and Historical Museum, 200 Main Street, Sag Harbor. All attendees will have their temperature checked upon arrival, must wear masks, and must remain socially distanced from other attendees.

“Musical Mornings!,” a singing workshop led by singer and cabaret artist Valerie diLorenzo, will begin Monday, August 24. Teens ages 16 and up and adults can register for the workshop for a fee of $150, or $55 per day. “Tap Camp LIVE!," led by professional tap dancer Anita Boyer will be held Tuesday, August 25, from 10 to 11:30 a.m. Kids ages 10 and up and adults can register for a fee of $75.

“Musical Mornings!” is a three-day singing workshop that meets Monday, Wednesday and Thursday, August 24, 26 and 27, from 10 a.m. to noon each day. Valerie diLorenzo will lead participants through a full physical and vocal warmup, followed by an array of beloved songs from Broadway, House of Mouse, pop, jazz, and more. Participants will leave energized, with a greater appreciation for their breath and a completely new repertoire! Registrants are welcome to sing a solo, but must bring sheet music for the live accompanist, who will attend every session.
