In this drama class, students will develop stage adaptations based on children’s literature, such as fractured fairy tales, cultural fables, fiction, and non-fiction stories that will be used to teach educational lessons. (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)
