SKILL-BUILDING CLASSES

Character in Song – Presenting a Musical Theater Piece
(Grade 8- Adult)
Wednesday 8:00 – 9:00 pm
January 11th – March 7th, 2012
Tuition $95
This class will show you how to bring out your best presentation of musical theater repertoire. Singing is so much more than just having a nice voice. Learn how to make an immediate connection with your audience, find musical continuity without losing the meaning of the words, shape the drama inherent in each song through your phrasing and physicality, and find a vocal
style that exhibits your unique gifts. Explore various character types and musical theater genres.

Auditioning: Reading and Monologues (Grades 5 – 12)
Saturday 11am – 12N
January 14th – March 10th, 2012
Tuition $95
Class size limited to 8 students Auditioning, auditioning, auditioning! It can be one of the most stressful events for young performers. Sadly, nervousness and discomfort can hinder the most talented of young performers, and even though you may be perfect for the part, it goes to someone else after callbacks. A special skill set is required to tryout for shows effectively, so the part you want CAN BE YOURS. This class focuses on teaching what you can do at cold reading auditions to fully express your level of talent and enthusiasm. Also, each student will have the opportunity to learn and polish a great monologue to use for future auditions. High school students would especially benefit in preparing for college program tryouts. There’s a lot of talented kids out there and this class will definitely give you an edge to get that role.

Comedy/Improv (Grade 8 – Adult)
Mon 7:30 – 9:00 pm
January 9th – March 5th, 2012
Tuition $145
Explore the crazy world of improvisation and comedy where students enjoy creating diverse characters and learning improvisation games while thinking “on their feet” with confidence. Students will create a short example of their work to be presented on the last class of each session. This class is appropriate for students who are new to learning improv techniques and for those who want to enhance their emerging skills.

Acting for the Stage (Grade 8 – Adult)
Mon 6:30 – 7:30 pm
January 9th – March 5th, 2012
