Entry into this class is by permission of instructor only. Homeschool students aged 8-14 who have previous experience will continue to develop the actor’s tools — body, voice, mind and imagination — in this fall "process" semester. The fall will include improvisation activities, theatre games, and movement. Additionally, students will work together as a group to develop a script they will perform during the spring "rehearsal/performance" semester. Students will have the opportunity to work individually, in small groups, and as a whole group. The fall and corresponding spring semester will culminate in a performance in the spring.
