Fall 2023 Classes

Thursdays, 6-7pm. Children in grades 3-5 will explore elements of performance through acting games and activities that will develop their self confidence, comfort level speaking in front of others, problem solving skills, ability to work well with others, creativity, and so much more! This is an ideal “intro to acting” for elementary children with little or no experience. This semester will emphasize scene work with partners and small groups.

Cost is $420/child.

Fridays, 5-6:30pm. In this “One-Act Play” class, the students will audition, rehearse, and perform the fun and creative holiday one-act play, North Pole’s Got Talent! Through auditions and rehearsals, students will learn and develop skills that are important for acting in plays, and will be encouraged to challenge themselves outside their comfort zone as they explore acting skills through performance. This class is ideal for students who want to be part of a production but cannot commit to longer hours, as well as any student who wants to be part of a play in a smaller setting than a full Performance

Session. Students will receive 1:1 attention from their teachers throughout the semester to hone

their skills and develop them individually as actors. 

Cost is $500/child.

Wednesdays, 4:45 - 6pm. Our semester-long Series Musical Theatre classes are aimed at developing children’s musical theatre skills, specifically singing and dancing.

This is a quick-paced class that is ideal for younger children who have a love of musical theatre and desire to foster that to develop their own skills! No previous experience necessary.
