Musical theatre singing is not just about vocal quality, but also character and storytelling as well. In this class, students will examine a few different Broadway numbers, not just building vocal technique and blending as an ensemble, but also exploring character choices and story line as well. Over the eight-week session, students will rehearse and stage their numbers, and perform them for families in a showcase during the final class date, March 12 (make-up dates in case of weather or emergency cancelations March 19 and 26). (Different musical selections are made each session for recurring students.)

If you’ve got a talent and a love for making people laugh, this eight-week workshop is for you! 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.
