(A new adaptation is explored each session for recurring students.) Together, they will learn basic stage skills and direction, explore character development, creative use of movement, develop stage-speaking skills, and build confidence! At the end of this course the students will present this performance for an invited audience (with costumes, props, minor set pieces, and stage lighting) on the final date, June 22 (during the scheduled class time). This acting class promises to be fun, exciting and memorable. All students must be available for the showcase performance. Registration: $350 (10% off all eight-week registrations made thru March 25, 2024) On the Spot: Comedy and Improv for Kids, Grades 3 to 5June 22, 2024 – On the Spot: Comedy and Improv for Kids, Grades 3 to 5 *This class is no longer available for registration.

Humor speaks to all personalities and is an effective way of channeling creativity to make poignant and relevant commentary. In this class, young actors will tap into their own creative ideas and instincts as they explore improv, sketches, physical comedy, parody and joke-telling! They’ll build confidence and teamwork as they learn to trust in themselves and their fellow actors, and recognize the difference between appropriate and inappropriate humor. (Games and exercises are often varied from session to session for recurring students.) A performance showcase is optional. If the class elects not to hold a performance, we will provide parents with video clips of student work from the class session. Registration: $280 (10% off all eight-week registrations made thru March 25, 2024). |
