Acting for Teens is a great learning opportunity for new young actors and experienced performers ages 11-15, alike. In this course, students will learn various stage-acting techniques and the process of creating a character primarily through movement. No previous acting experience is required. This 10-week class is considered a class that students can take multiple times. No semester is the same as every session is tailored to the students enrolled. Students will also perform at the end of the session showcase.
Class will meet Wednesdays from 5-6PM, September 25 through December 4 (no class Thanksgiving week).
