WORKSHOP (Ages 3-4)
This thirty-minute class will be an opportunity to explore our voices, bodies, and imagination through group activities, games, and songs. We will learn a dance or read a story together and bring it to life in each class. Themes will likely cover Pirates, Wizards, Witches, & Magical Creatures, and Monsters/Ghosts.
WORKSHOP (Grades K-2 and Grades 3-5)
The first week will focus on Theatre Games including building an ensemble as a group and engaging our imaginations through interactive play. The remaining classes will be theme-based while continuing to build confidence and skills using our actor tools: the body, the voice, and the imagination. Themes will include Pirates, Wizards, Witches, & Magical Creatures, Monsters/Ghosts/Zombies, and Broadway. Each week students will learn one short song and/or dance.
