Weekend Classes

Our 6-week winter weekend classes will take place from March 1/2-April 5/6!

Grades K to 1

Treasure Trunk Theatre: Ready for Adventure! (Grades K-1)

Get ready to take an imaginative trip! Inspired by mystery objects found in the treasure trunk, students will head off on a new adventure each class using movement, creative problem-solving, and imaginative play. An engaging theme charts the course for a fun-filled journey. A hands-on art project adds to the fun. In this session, students are encouraged to bring their adventurous spirit out to play! A final demonstration for family and friends will occur on the last day of class.
Grades: 1st Grade, Kindergarten | Type(s): Creative Drama |

Stories on Stage: Wondrous Journeys (Grades 1-3)

Where will your imagination take you? Each week students will travel through fiction’s most adventurous stories, all while never leaving the classroom. Students will use their actor’s tools (body, mind, voice, and imagination) to create dynamic characters as they journey far from home and back again. How does your character grow and change throughout the journey? Through theatre and hands-on visual art experiences, students will bring these stories to life. A final demonstration for family and friends will occur on the last day of class.

Musical Mash-Up: Misfits Unite! (Grades 1-3)

Drawing from the best of Broadway, students will “ Let Their Freak Flag Fly” as they explore stories of misfits and outcasts who stay true to themselves against all odds. They will learn to “sing a story” by exploring the various voices that can be produced by using the appropriate vocal technique. Students will connect the voice to posture, gesture, and full-body movement through improvisation to create vivid characters. They will “dance a story” by learning to use creative movement to bring their storytelling to life. Not all actors need to dance, but learning how to use a creative and flexible range of movement will help young actors feel more confident on stage, develop physically interesting characters, and add another skill to their actor’s toolbox. A final demonstration for family and friends will occur on the last day of class.
