We're sorry, but this Activity is full.
Description:
Young performing artists will explore techniques and gain experiences helping them better understand how to animate a story through live performance! Students will learn valuable skills that will enhance their vocal strength, physical awareness, team work, focus, imagination and stage etiquette. To further grasp character study, each student will be responsible for creating their own costume(s), stage makeup and hair style. Memorization of lines, blocking, and careful examination of the text will be required as a part of script analysis. This year we will focus on exploring the magical world of fairies in William Shakespeare’s A Midsummer Night’s Dream. A final showcase will be performed for friends and family at the end of this session on December 12th, 2020.
