ACTING FOR TEENS  Ages 13–17

This course is designed for students who either have had some dramatic training or who have never taken a class but have a keen interest in learning about acting and theatre. Students will be encouraged and challenged to expand their dramatic abilities through physical, vocal, and theatrical exercises. Each session will offer a different dramatic focus so that students learn and develop a basic working vocabulary and gain confidence in their ability to perform.

Fall session:
This term, students will read, discuss, explore dramatically, rehearse and perform a number of scenes from a number of plays, movies and television series. These scenes will be a mixture of dramatic and comedic material and will have content relevant to what teenagers experience or think about. Improvisation, particular acting style techniques, movement and vocal exercises will also be part of their development. They will perform these scenes before a studio audience at the end of the term.

Sept. 22–Dec. 8 (12 sessions)
