Students use their bodies, voices and imaginations, and develop their cooperation skills, to explore stories and take imaginary journeys. All sessions include music, dance and visual art with an emphasis on dramatic play! Get ready to see these young learners singing songs and putting on their own plays for you at home!
Early learners will have a blast singing and dancing Broadway show tunes. Students will work together as an ensemble as they develop music, rhythm, and dance skills. Get ready to hear your young person filling your home with the sounds of Broadway!
If you love to work hands-on and see yourself in multiple roles, this class is for you! Join teaching artist, Peter Reeves as each session we tackle a subject, create a character or improvise with wild abandon. The class is split into actors, directors, designers and writers, trading places every week. We build all parts of a play and perform the work to its conclusion on the spot. Even Rome wasn’t built in a day. But our class is! Life is short. Build stuff that matters!
Elementary students will be singing, acting, and dancing their way through Broadway show tunes! Young Actors will develop characters while engaging in various singing styles and dance techniques. Students will work together to hone their ensemble skills and build confidence on the stage and beyond.
A triple threat performer is the whole package, someone who can sing, act, and dance! Teens interested in musical theatre will learn a depth of knowledge as they dissect scenes, master dance routines, develop musicianship and solo/ensemble vocal skills. This class is an excellent way to prepare young actors for school productions and professional theatre auditions!
Join Teaching Artist, Peter Reeves and learn the basic rules of the game as you hone acting skills like active listening and spontaneity, and better understand character, circumstance, time, place, emotion and action. Make yourself and your scene partner look great and say "yes!" to actions and characters introduced into a scene. Improv is a great confidence builder in addition to being a lot of fun!
