The fundamentals of Method acting are explored. Students are led through exercises in order to explore: developing a character, developing a relationship, and creating real behavior. Students also work on scenes and monologues. There is an informal presentation of the scenes and monologues on the last class for friends and family.

This class will run on Thursdays, February 24 – April 14 (No Class 3/24), 4:00pm – 6:00pm

Ages: 10 – 13 Year Olds
