MEET THE INSTRUCTOR

JACY BURDETTE
A native of the Alleghany Highlands, Jacy Burdette is an award-winning director and theater educator. Having earned her theater degree from the University of Virginia at Wise, Jacy has directed numerous plays including The Yellow Boat, which won the Virginia One-Act State Championship,. In the summer of 2018, Jacy worked at a Governor’s school in Virginia where high school students earn college credits teaching theatre to high school students. She developed and implemented a theatre arts curriculum for elementary, middle, and high school students. She has worked with numerous elementary age children, many of whom are disadvantaged or who have special needs. In her instruction, Jacy uses the three basic building blocks of theatre – the body, the voice, and the imagination to help students become the best they can be. Jacy brings her passion and her love of theatre and all its possibilities to the Historic Masonic Theatre.
