The Life of a Show
8 Week/1-Hour per Week Course
Follow the life of a new show from blank page to dazzling on stage! Students will be walked through the process of bringing a show to life as they get a behind-the-scenes look at the many people that contribute to a production along the way. From playwriting, to designing, to acting, and even producing, students will get a chance to practice a variety of skills as they create their very own show. Bursting with valuable life skills such as team work, communication, creativity, and emotional intelligence, this course will be worthwhile for first-timers to the theatre as well as young Broadway stars in the making!
Taught from a Christian Perspective:
See how each different member of the cast and crew of a show
is a beautiful picture of the body of Christ!

FAQs
Will there be a performance at the end of the 8-week course?
No. While the students will be going through the process of creating a show and will be creating parts of a show in class, this class focuses on letting them explore the process rather than working to present a fully produced piece.
How can the course cater to both beginning and advanced students?
This course is able to challenge novice and advanced students alike because it focuses on the skill of practicing creativity. Some terminology and theatre history is incorporated that may be review for students who have had previous theatre experience/training. However, because the focus is not on previous knowledge, but on the act of creating, teachers are able to challenge each student individually.

Scene Study
8 Week/2-Hour per Week Workshop
Every artist knows that it takes consistent practice to hone their skills. However, our schedules don’t always afford us time and space to let our creativity run wild. Come be challenged and inspired by fellow artists as you dive into three different scenes in this scene study workshop. The first scene we explore will be an open scene to let you stretch your imagination and focus on the core principles of listening/responding and making bold choices. The later two scenes will be from published plays; choose a character that you’ve always wanted to play or a scene that will really stretch you - it’s up to you! Don’t let your craft stagnate. Carve out time to grow and play!
