Update: Jan-Mar Youth Intro to Play Production Workshop

This update reflects a change in days and dates. Originally, the class was scheduled for Tuesdays starting on January 24. It will now be Wednesdays starting January 25. All other information remains the same.

Students will work together for five weeks to put on a small, one-act play for their parents and friends. The sixth week of class is reserved for the performance. Youth will audition for a role, with all participants being cast fairly. Students will then work to memorize lines and blocking, while focusing on the basics of theater skills (projection, blocking, stage direction, etc.)

Kids Improv Classes All Levels Jan-March 2017

Kids’ improv classes are returning in early 2017 for both beginners and intermediate

Beginners will learn the basic tenants and skills of theater arts, including: blocking, projection, mime, enunciation, body work, character development and introductory production skills. Kids with little to no experience on the stage will learn to be comfortable in front of an audience. Additionally, kids will be empowered with a strong foundation in the theater arts, thus making it easier to become involved in scholastic and community theater.

Children with previous theater classes or performances, are encouraged to join the intermediate class to further hone their skills. This class will work more intensely with improv skills (escalating, “Yes, and…”, etc.). Students will work with one, long monologue throughout the class and perform it for their friends and family during the final class. Classes will primarily focus on games, with time set aside for monologue work. Some homework will be given.
