Schedule:
Thursday - Auditorium: 3:00 pm - 4:50 pm
Description:
“It was only when I realized how actors have the power to move people that I decided to pirate acting as a career “ -Cate Blanchett.
Acting is moving and powerful…and hard. But it’s also one of the most incredible and fulfilling things I’ve ever done. In this class I’d love to nurture and develop your student’s love of acting and live theater helping them grow into greater actors by becoming better observers, critical thinkers, and more expressive and grounded individuals.
In this class we will work on scenes and monologues as well as preparing for a comedy night at the end of the term. We will cover acting basics in an engaging and wholesome environment where we work together to improve and encourage young actors to deepen and improve their craft at whatever level they are at currently.
Bring a desire to act, a good attitude, and a water bottle!
Homework: 30-60min daily
** Note to parents: if your student is aged 10-13, please contact the teacher by call or text at 360-953-2157 before registering.
