SEACT Youth Camp Founders

Eddie & Sam Farnham have been involved with SEACT as actors and directors since 1992, and teaching the next generation of theatre-lovers for at least that long. They have directed multiple main-stage youth performances including The Little Mermaid Jr., Shrek Jr., and Aladdin Jr. Each summer the duo write and direct an original children's script for SEACT's Dothan summer campers. These clever but silly plays are intended to allow for multiple characters (everyone gets a role!), and lots of action on the part of our enthusiastic stars.

Summer Camp Youth Instructor

Margo Wright has been interested in theatre since she was 7 years old.  She started taking private acting lessons at the age of 10, and studied acting at Furman University. When Margo moved to Dothan in the early 80's, she became involved with SEACT as an actor and director.  Margo has directed 3 of SEACT’s main-stage youth productions including The Little Mermaid Jr. (co-directed), Alice in Wonderland Jr., and this season's Mary Poppins Jr. (co-directed). Margo works with the older campers ages 10+ on character development and teamwork to present the final production to parents and friends.
