Fall Acting Classes
Weekly Classes
Sundays, October through December
The fall classes focus on building your theatrical skills: improv, scene study, and monologues. Small class size means plenty of individual instruction, and the supportive, high-energy environment brings out the best in every student. Whether you’re checking us out for the first time, or a summer camp veteran looking to hone your craft, these classes will take your acting to the next level. All classes end with a showcase performance in December.
Perfect for beginning or experienced performers, this improvisation and acting class gives budding actors an overview of the art of performing. While rehearsing short scenes, students will practice analyzing scripts, building a character, balancing logic with imagination, and collaborating with scene partners.
Scene Study & Acting Technique
This scene study class gives students practice preparing a role in a play. We will delve into the core of the scenes through rehearsals and improvisational games that teach basic acting skills. Students will learn to research and explore their character, balance logic with imagination, identify their character’s journey, collaborate with scene partners, and rehearse productively.
Monologues and Audition Strategies
Spend this autumn selecting, rehearsing and performing monologues that showcase your strengths as a performer! In this intensive class, we will delve into acting techniques, explore textual analysis, physically train the actor’s body and voice, and discuss/practice audition strategies. Class concludes with a showcase of monologues.(Ninth graders accepted at permission of instructor.)
