COMMUNITY EDUCATION

turning point in my journey. Here I have met many new people and realized my passion for all things mechanical. But, most importantly, I have been able to absorb and utilize the in-depth training provided by my dedicated instructors, Ray and Ishmael. Their hands-on, structured program gave me the foundation and knowledge needed to start and maintain a successful career as a Diesel Technician. I started my career at Peterbilt with the help of a recommendation from Ray and have continued to progress and move forward ever since. I am now learning new skills while furthering my career as a technician for a large, successful company.

My education at Shasta College has taught me that a good, helpful learning environment can often be the difference between a passion and a career.

SHAKESPEAREAN PLAY - THE 3 MUSKETEERS

Play Write Kirsten Childs’s unique adaptation sheds new light on this swashbuckling adventure, giving the familiar favorite new resonance. The Three Musketeers is a reminder to all that courage, honesty, and valor can change the world. The adaptation freely deploys verse, contemporary vernacular language, hip-hop, Rap, dance, music, and swordplay! Is this the origin of Urban contemporary swagger and style?

This production will be both familiar and surprising! A raucous, dynamic, visceral, and exciting production where then meets now—boys eventually become men—loyalty, honor, and honesty are ascending values, and we are all finally responsible for each other. It’s a classic romantic adventure story. A story we may think we know, can still surprise and delight in new ways. We aspire to share a Three Musketeers that celebrates what we’ve always loved in this classic, while simultaneously reclaimed as a joyful masterwork of the African Diaspora.

IMPORTANT NOTE: This new adaptation of The Three Musketeers has frequent profanity and rousing stage violence that plays out with panache, style, and hip-hop flair. It is true to the original story and is suitable for audiences who can handle the language. There is frequent profanity and stage violence including death by stabbing, poison, and sword fight.
