Actors' Workshop

This class will explore the fundamentals of acting, including character development, voice projection, and stage presence.  Students will work on scenes from plays, practicing techniques for delivering lines with emotion, timing, and clarity. Through group exercises and individual rehearsals, students will build confidence in their acting skills and learn how to collaborate with others on stage. By the end of the class, students will be ready to perform a short scene or monologue, showcasing their growth as young actors.
