Secret Life of Super Heroes (1st- 4th grade)
Jan. 24 - Feb. 14th Saturdays 10:00-12:00 pm
Imaginations will run wild as students invent their own super-characters in harrowing situations. Each young actor will build two unique and original super characters in conflict. Can your child save the world and avert catastrophe? Maybe they have secret plans to take over the universe. Let them discover their own super-strengths in acting. A showcase performance will be held for parents and friends.
Story Voyage (5th- 8th grade)
Jan. 24 - Feb. 14th Saturdays 10:00-12:00 pm
This class works together to create an ensemble showcase. The student actors create different journeys from an important moment in time. The World Series, from the perspective of the star player, the concessions worker, or a crazed fan. A hurricane, from the point of view of a politician, weather reporter, and a family. The group will determine the moment in time and all of the stories coming out of it to build imagination, creativity, and ensemble play. A showcase performance will be held for parents and friends.
