Children's Drama (Ages 11-12)
WINTER TERM RESERVING NOW!!
WINTER-SPRING 2012 COURSE OPTIONS:
These gentle and playful 8-12 week courses explore acting and drama games in a creative and supportive environment. Using the tools of the acting process, we can increase each students ability to bring their inner world to life. At this age, young people are beginning to glimpse some of the choices they will be making on their approach to teenage years. Students are encouraged to be expressive and imaginative while strengthening their abilities to observe and make choices about the world around them. The AUTUMN and SPRING terms include a public presentation in the last day of class, and the WINTER term is for process only, and does not have a presentation. Students may take one term or all three. In performance terms, we will be creating an original piece to be performed in a presentation on the final day of class for invited family and friends. Note that the Saturday prior to the production will have an extended class time. Class size is limited to 12 students in order to maximize the experience for all participants. Discount €20 for siblings!

Description: This course is a one-week romp in drama to explore the creative process in a supportive environment with no-performance pressure! In 5 half-day sessions, we will explore the same fundamental aspects of the acting process as in the performance classes, including the voice and body work, improvisation, theatre games, ensemble work, and devising stories to be performed within the classroom. The students will keep a journal style book of images and words to document their experienced during the week and to take with them at the end as a keepsake . This is a low pressure, playful, summer-time excursion into the imaginative world of creating stories and characters. Class size is limited to 12 students maximum in order to assure the highest level of attention for all participants. There is usually a wait list for this course, so reserve early!
