Your Kids' Theatre
Your Kids' Theatre is a 2-week intensive workshop, meeting four times a week for two and a half hours. Throughout the workshop, children will build and enhance many skills essential for the stage and for life. They will strengthen communication skills and articulation while learning to collaborate on a play together without competing. Using their bodies and voices as their "actor's instrument", they will gain a sense of the discipline required of the craft of acting. They will also acquire a basic knowledge of theatrical terms and conventions and acting techniques. The last day of class will be a performance and cast party. Participants will leave the workshop with the tools needed not only for the stage and for public speaking, but for everyday communication with others. Most of all, they will have lots of fun and perhaps a newfound love of the Theatre!
The workshop is open to children ages 7-11. Each class is limited to 20 children. Classes are held on Monday though Thursday from 3:00 PM to 5:30 PM for a two week period, a total of 20 hours. The fee is $160 per child. A minimum payment of $80 is required at the time of registration. The balance must be paid prior to the first class.
