Step into acting with a fun class full of improv, theatre games, and creative storytelling.  Perfect for beginners and performers with a bit of experience!

Focusing on depth instead of breadth, the class will read one play and perform scenes from them. Students will hone their analytical skills and spark their creative impulses to flesh out their characters so that they truly live on stage in front of us.

Sharpen and deepen your acting skills by rehearsing and performing a scene from a contemporary play.  Using theatre games, textual analysis, and physical and vocal exercises, students will learn to develop a distinct character.

Perfect for college or professional auditions, select and hone two monologues that showcase your strengths as a performer. Learn the advanced acting techniques that allow you to present your best work to directors and casting agents, or expand your range by tackling new character types.

How do we as theatre artists approach plays with difficult themes and embedded biases? Traveling Players director, Ryan Fields, will lead this class in discussing and reading contemporary plays.

Create a bold new story of your own creation using the ever popular role-playing game Dungeons and Dragons. Each adventure is customized for maximum creativity and theatrical challenge! 

The illustrious poet Trissotan has come to stay with the lady Philamente and her family - and with him, he's brought all the good things in life: learning, knowledge, panache, and style.  So what if he's also a treacherous, self-serving scoundrel?  Will Philamente's long-suffering family unmask the fraud before it's too late?  Or will Trissotan get away with Philamente's money, savings - and even her daughter's hand in marriage?

This is a remount of our Summer 2024 production. Auditions are open to any camper who participated in the Thespian Ensemble this summer. 

Performances: Sept. 21-29
