Acting for Youth
Ages: 10-14 years
This class will focus on character acting, movement, script work, and developing focus on stage. Participants will be expected to read and discuss scripts/scenes, learning lines independently between classes.
Our participants will learn a short monologue (or scene) to perform for family and friends at the end of the session.
No experience required. This is an older age group, however, and we recommend that 10-11 year-olds with no previous drama experience try our Theatre Skills class first.
Performance: The end-of-session performance will happen during the last class. Actors will be dropped off first to prepare and the show will begin approx. 20 minutes later. Family and friends are welcome. Instructors will communicate any additional details if needed.
