This is the class for a young actor who is looking to be part of an exciting production! Students will have the opportunity to build a character, learn lines, understand blocking, and be part of a cast! During this one hour class, students will be engrossed in being part of this production. The hour class will be filled with fun, acting, and character building. Students will perform their show at the end of the semester for family and friends!

Peter Pan” a musical follows Peter and Tinkerbell to Neverland where Wendy and her brothers have a food fight with the Lost Kids, battle the playful pirates, and of course, make Captain Hook walk the plank. This abbreviated and song filled version of Peter Pan has all the charm of the classic story. A true comedy adventure based on the classic Peter Pan.

All students will be cast in a part and sing in the ensemble. They will have a blast developing, utilizing, and growing their theater skills whether they are new to performing or have been a part of previous shows. Casting information will be provided prior to class to allow students to prepare their casting audition at the first class. The beginning of the semester will be mastering basic acting tools, then we will dive into the rehearsal process. This will be a fun and engaging experience for actors of all levels!

In the Director’s Chair

A fun and immersive experience for theater enthusiasts. Students will serve as Assistant Directors working on a production. Assistant directors will take part in helping the instructor work with students in the Let’s Act! Tuesday evening class. Students will learn leadership skills, casting, directing, and blocking scenes, costumes and props, and assist students with preparing for their roles. In the Director’s Chair allows your student to shape a performance and put their director’s hat skills to the test while working on an actual performance. 

From those who know they have a love for directing and are interested in the behind the scenes experience to those who want to improve their own performance skills, this class is sure to be a hit! Participating in the Assistant Director role will provide the opportunity for application and grow the student’s theatre resume and their sense of accomplishment.

A key part of this class will be table talk learning sessions in the first 30 minutes of class. This will include discussion, review of the previous class including what worked, what didn’t, and what we learned from the class. The next hour of class will be a time of application with the Peter Pan production.

This is primarily considered a non-performing role, roles may be assigned for this production if necessary to complete our cast.
