Drama & Stagecraft
Drama classes encourage empathy, honesty, develop understanding of human emotions and interactions, help to develop language and communication skills, teach cooperation and tolerance, nurture friendships and are a great way to inspire creativity.
Drama classes help to develop independent, self-confident children free from the inhibitions that limit so many of us.
These classes cover improvisation, script work, voice and diction, expressive physicality, drama games and much more. No two weeks are the same and the emphasis is on fun, interaction and confidence building.
Through improvisation, script analysis and the study of monologue materials, students are introduced to the fundamentals of Stagecraft Acting & performance. Special emphasis is placed on interpretation and translation of the dramatic script as the basis for exploration of characterisation, motivation and transition.
