Welcome To
Actors Workshop 2009


Session 1 - July 6 - 17
Session 2 - July 20 - 31

Actor's Workshop is designed to provide a general theater experience and is centered on a core curriculum of acting, improvisation, theater games and productions. Workshops are presented in acting, as well as the use of costumes and props, and script writing. Campers join in a potpourri of staged vignettes, movie scenes, acting games, skits, improvisation and monologues. The camper will develop confidence in their stage presence by becoming familiar with stage movement, voice projection and the creative process. A final performance for parents and guests at the end of every session offer each camper the chance to dress up in costumes, design and create scenery memorize lines; write their own commercials and original plays. Special theme days such as stand-up comedy and Shakespeare will be included as time permits. There is a talent showcase at each performance. Campers have the opportunity to perform through dance, music or acting a selection of their choice. All campers may perform a solo, duet or group talent.
