YOUNG ACTOR'S WORKSHOP

This course allows students to explore the basics of acting on the stage. Group classes encourage teamwork and creative problem solving-skills which are useful in all academic subjects. Each session explores a different topic (character development, environment and situation) and utilizing scenes from classic plays, students are able to put into practice the various techniques they learn through exercises in improvisation, observation, text analysis and voice work. Eight-week sessions are designed to work consecutively to give students an overall theatrical experience.

$350 for one session - 8 weeks of classes

Classes meet Saturdays from 10am - 12 noon
