FOR ELEMENTARY

CREATIVE DRAMATICS

Creative Dramatics is about process and building the necessary skills for students to participate in theatre, to help students develop new understandings of themselves and the world around them, and to become skilled in new ways to communicate through voice and body.

Creative Dramatics develop the skills necessary for a child to ultimately be able to confidently pick up a script and go from the text to the stage and understand many of the “whys” and “how to-s”.

imagination, and emphasizing the significance of teamwork, students become adept at communicating effectively through both their voice and body.

 

Beginning acting is a delightful and enjoyable way for students to gain insights into themselves, discover their place in the world, and explore their emotions. Additionally, it promotes empathy and a deeper understanding of others.

FOR MIDDLE SCHOOL

MUSICAL THEATRE TROUPE

Musical theatre is a form of performance that combines songs, spoken dialogue, acting, and dance. Acting is a great outlet for creativity. But what really stretches one’s’ creative muscle is acting combined with singing and dancing. Musical theater training will not guarantee your child to develop incredible singing skills, but it does give a level of technical awareness when singing. Confidence is all about getting out of your comfort zone. And musical theater training does just that. Musical theater training includes voice training. That doesn’t necessarily mean your child will develop professional singing skills, but it does mean that they will learn how to use their voice better.

Musical theatre obviously combines song and dance, so dance training is a must. Mastering stage movement is super important for actors. Musical theater training not only gives your child musical stamina but physical coordination that’s so useful on stage as well. Actors of all ages must have a certain awareness of their bodies and be able to move freely. Musical theater training provides a creative outlet that can’t be beat. It teaches kids not only useful techniques and skills, but encourages them to grow, get out of their shell, and make new friends.

Students in this class will have the opportunity to be included in the cast of OLYMPUS: The Greek Rock Musical in January.
