TRIMESTER CLASSES

This class will explore all the elements that make up musical theatre. Students will learn the basics of acting, singing, and movement as well as how to work together in a creative environment. This winter, students will hop across the pond and learn songs from Mary Poppins, Mary Poppins Returns, and Matilda. This class is the perfect introduction to theatre and the performing arts for young students.

The dynamic world of Musical Theatre is explored in this introductory skills-building class. Students develop the basics of singing, dancing, and acting using songs and choreography from a wide range of popular Broadway musicals in a supportive environment. Students learn stage directions, basic dance steps and terminology, healthy vocal production techniques which include proper breathing, matching pitch, and singing in an ensemble.

In this class students will learn the basics of creating a character for stage. They will experiment by performing a monologue with finding character voices, body movements and consider stories and emotions behind character motivation. Each session will focus on monologues from different types of theatrical works and no two sessions will be the same. The winter 23/24 Session will focus on comedic acting styles. This class is a perfect way to become more comfortable when you have to do monologues for auditions! Students can repeat this class.
