Class Description
We will use theatre games, improv exercises, and scripted material to help your child develop self-confidence, explore their imagination and learn to express themselves creatively! Each exercise is designed to focus on a specific acting skill, such as trusting creative instincts, or using voice and physicality as a means of expression. Students will work collaboratively and each have their own moment in the spotlight as well! Through the use of scenes and monologues, students will work on character development, script interpretation and performance skills. Class culminates in a presentation for parents.
