Students will practice the art of creating characters and telling exciting stories. Students will focus on story structure (beginning, middle & end) and put together a short piece. Guided by professional theatre artist, students will create new stories that will be shared with caregivers on the last day of class. Acting Essentials engages body, voice, and imagination through a fast-paced curriculum of drama activities. Each class includes specific instructions in theatre skills, making every session unique.

Acting Essentials may be repeated multiple times with new content, new challenges, and new opportunities for growth. Students do not need to have taken previous classes to succeed in this course. This class culminates to an informal in-class sharing on the last day of class.
