Our 4th-5th grade classes provide young actors with tools to create vivid characters, gain an understanding of stage terminology, and work as an ensemble to create theatrical pieces. On the final day of each session, family and friend are invited to join the last 30 minutes of class for an informal demonstration of skills learned.
