2013 Summer Youth Workshop

Want to know What the Summer Workshop is, What will be taught, and who it is for? Then this is the blog for you!


Our 2013 Summer Workshop starts on Monday, June 10th @ 12PM and is Monday through Thursday from 12PM to 3PM until Thursday, June 20th.

 Cost is for the Workshop is $200 and students will get to take part in our first Musical ever, "The Emerald City of Oz", in January 2014.




What is the Summer Workshop and Who is it for?


Our Summer Workshop is a condensed form of our fall or winter/spring semester workshops.  We design the workshop to be an intensive class for the new as well as growing thespian.  This workshop is roughly for students age 8-14, but we don't hold strictly to that, as there are younger students who are mature enough to learn at an older level, and there are older students who are new enough to benefit from our classes.

What will students learn/be taught during the workshop?


As a veteran actress, director, teacher and playwright with a degree in theatre and over 30 years professional experience, I strive to give my students a firm foundation on which to build in the craft of theatre. The summer workshop will cover stage terms, using the body as an instrument, learning to create a character, body language, and use and feel emotions believably, write a back story, and much more. 
Our classes offer the the most comprehensive available outside upper level college classes, for actors of all ages and ability levels.
