Let’s go deeper! In this class, we focus on self-discovery, collaboration, and creation to grow your elementary aged actor into a budding professional. Students of varying levels and backgrounds join us in learning more about the art of acting through creativity and collaboration.

Come aboard this fun, exploratory experience for primary aged students through first grade! Let’s learn the basics of acting while concentrating on building each student’s individual imagination and creativity to create unlimited adventure.

Explore the fundamentals of multiple acting techniques—from Uta Hagen to Sanford Meisner and other masters of “The Method.”

A great technique is the one you create for yourself by exploring multiple roads to the truth of the moment. Learn the principles of characterization, script analysis and rehearsal-level improvisation by exploring truthful preparation and active approaches to your work.

Stretch and grow your natural talent by learning the fundamental tools it takes to be a successful, professional actor. In this class we will explore script analysis, stage presence, acting terminology, physicality, characterization, and improvisation to advance each student’s confidence and creativity. Let’s build on your knowledge of the basics and learn how to bring your uniqueness to every story.

Join experienced improvisers for the nuts and bolts of comic improvisation, basic improv platforms and other short- and long-form techniques. Through exercises, games, and activities designed to stretch the imagination, the instructor will lead each student individually and this class collectively towards a mastery of improvisation technique.

Students will learn first hand the importance of Improv. Whether it be in daily life or on the stage, thinking quick is a skill best learned early. This class will teach just that while also invoking fun and laughter through games and comedy.

What makes musical theatre so special? The music!

This class will give you all the tools you will need to be the best musician you can be. You will learn how to quickly sight-read, recognize key signatures and key changes, understand how the score works for you and you for it, and so much more.

Auditioning is a skill just like acting, singing and dancing. Why not practice auditioning? Just like everything else, the more you audition the better you get at it! You get more comfortable and learn your strengths, weaknesses and what you can do better next time. So much of this business is auditioning and so much of your time will be spent auditioning. It’s crucial to know how to “sell yourself” in the best way possible. Students will participate in various “practice auditions.” Everything will be treated like an audition from when they walk into the room to when they leave. They will be taught choreography quickly and be broken into groups. It will be their responsibility to come warmed up and ready as if it were an actual audition. Feedback will be given and they’ll have the opportunity to ask questions and go over the do’s and don’t of auditioning. We will discuss audition attire and the best things to wear so you feel comfortable and confident going into your audition. This class will help better prepare you for the rigorous process of musical theater auditions and what will be expected of you as a professional!
