Take A Bow!
This class is designed to explore the fun and function of drama and theatre for older students. Students will explore acting genres from comedy to dramatic interpretation to improv. They will produce several sketches throughout the year and learn the process from beginning to end.
Confidence building games and beginning techniques for the stage will be taught. These include voice modulation, projection, stage presence, and character development. Writing for the stage, blocking, stage etiquette, and the creative process will also be included. Imagination will always be encouraged!
A focus of the class will be how we are created in the image of God and that He has given each of us the ability to be creative. We will be using Scripture and Bible stories as a foundation of the class.
