Class Description:

Let’s laugh, sing, and make a beautiful ruckus! Join Studio Playground for an acting class that empowers students to be adventurous and find their voice within an ensemble. Classes begin with a warm-up and physical acting game. Students learn teamwork and collaboration as they apply the actor’s tools of voice, body, and imagination to engage an audience in narrative storytelling. Students explore improvisation, clowning, storytelling, and performance projects. Each session ends with a performance for friends and family.

Learning Objectives:

  • Skills for improvisation and movement

  • Skills for ensemble development and collaboration

  • Apply the actor’s tools of voice, body, and imagination to narrative storytelling and creating original characters
