We’re thrilled to launch our revamped Performing Arts Program, led by Theatre Director Jaylin Hustedde!
Jaylin is a theatre teacher, director, and performer based in the Twin Cities. She earned her Bachelor of Arts in Theatre and Communication Arts/Literature Education from the University of Northwestern–St. Paul. Since graduating and obtaining her MN teaching license, she has worked with various theatre companies and schools, teaching classes, directing, and choreographing shows for all ages. Some of her recent work includes projects at Twin Cities Homeschoolers for the Arts, Oak View Middle School, University of Northwestern–St. Paul, Eagle Brook Church, and Art of Reconciliation.
PACT’s Performing Arts Program focuses on teamwork and skill-building. Students participate in all parts of theatre — from performing to production — gaining confidence, creativity, and cooperation. Our goal is to develop a program known for excellence both on and off the stage, where students can grow individually while working together as a team. Throughout the year, students improve their performance skills through monologues, mock auditions, scene work, and in-class exercises, while also learning about the technical roles behind the scenes that contribute to a production's success. The program features games, workshops with guest artists, and opportunities to see professional performances, ending with a spring production that highlights the students’ growth and commitment. Stay tuned for more details on how to sign up in the coming weeks!
Join us in welcoming Jaylin to the PACT family and celebrating this exciting new chapter for the PACT Performing Arts Program! She is excited to join the PACT family and collaborate with passionate students to develop their storytelling skills! ❤️🖤🎭
