Summer Workshops ~
June 24 - 29, 2013:
Scene It!
Fee: $250 [some financial aid is available on a first come/first served basis; income verification form required]
9am - 4pm [bring snacks ~ lunch is provided by federally funded summer lunch program, dress comfortably (bring sneakers for outdoor play)]
Designed for ages 7 – 15, this week long intensive gives each participant a chance to explore and expand on their acting and performance skills as both the individual and the group. Actors will become familiar with the elements of a "scene" and use these skills to create an original work ~ working together as an ensemble. While intended for students of all skill levels, this workshop will challenge the returning actor to achieve new depths in creating a character.
The fundamental goals of this week are:
To develop and/or hone an actor's skills with regard to understanding the playwright's intent (the text);
To reach both the experienced and novice actor and create a quality ensemble of performers;
To engage each student’s creative energy and focus it toward a common performance objective.
