This class will develop a foundation of performance & storytelling skills, beginning with voice, movement, and improv exercises that will teach young actors how to create compelling characters, relationships, and stories through spontaneous self-expression. Then, through both improvisation and script work, students will explore the building blocks of a scene and identify the components of effective storytelling. As the semester progresses, children will apply what they’ve learned to devise an original 30-minute play as a group, with opportunities to pitch in as playwrights, actors, directors, and designers! Each child will have the opportunity to participate behind the scenes or perform onstage, depending on their preference.
