Imagi-Motion: How Actors Use Their Bodies, Grades K to 2November 20, 2023 – Imagi-Motion: How Actors Use Their Bodies, Grades K to 2 - (NO LONGER AVAILABLE) Instructor: Alexandra Cahr Mondays, 4:15pm to 5:15pm 9/18, 10/2, 10/16, 10/23, 10/30, 11/6, 11/13, 11/20 *No class 9/25 (Yom Kippur) or 10/9 (Columbus/ Indigenous Peoples Day) This class is a dance/ movement class to help students build confidence in movement and learn how actors can use their bodies to create characters and tell stories. Young performers will build comfort and confidence in learning to use their bodies as acting tools. Acting requires more than words. Actors and dancers use their bodies and facial expressions to inform the audience of what kind of personality they are, and what they are feeling and thinking. Just simply how a character stands or how they walk can tell us an awful lot about them. (A giant would move very differently than a mouse, for example.) In this class, students will use music and movement exercises, and choreography to get in tune with their bodies creatively, and explore how body language, posture, gesture and facial expression can be used as effectively as a costume in order to create a character. They will also use masks and work with props. Registration: $136 for all eight weeks or register as a drop-in at just $20 per class. How Do I Prepare for Auditions? Grades 3 to 5November 20, 2023 – How Do I Prepare for Auditions?

Does your child wish to audition for the next big show, but lacks confidence or isn’t sure how to properly prepare for what’s expected? This workshop is designed to help! Students will build confidence in their skills and how to present themselves. They’ll learn how to pick the right song for themselves (that showcases their vocal and acting ability), and exactly what 32 bars of that song to audition with. They’ll also build confidence in tackling cold readings from scripts, as well as dance auditions. By the end of our eighth week, students will learn that auditions are not meant to be intimidating, but an opportunity for hopeful actors to shine!
