Youth (ages 10-15) interested in the performing arts need a gentle, personal on-ramp to meet them where they are. Emphasis during these classes focuses on a willingness to play, pretend, imagine, empathize, and dream, and then put all this energy into a physical, playable action. Curriculum will consist of theatre games, acting exercises, improvisation, basic acting and voice techniques, and beginning scene work. The classes will expand and culminate in a performance on Center Stage in April based on Shel Silverstein’s “Where the Sidewalk Ends”.

Adults and young adults expand their capacity to embody other characters through more challenging material and exercises. Emphasis during these classes focuses on honesty, vulnerability, truthfulness, and empathy, and then put all this energy into a physical, playable action. Fall curriculum will consist of script analysis, character development, scene work, improvisation, body and voice techniques, and performance. We will focus on developing craft and technique from the Western “the inside out” perspective (Stanislavsky, Strausberg, etc.).
