Class Experience

Welcome to our enchanting 10-hour-per-week Magical Acting Summer Camp, where aspiring performers will embark on an extraordinary journey to unlock their acting potential, enhance their skills, and set the stage for successful auditions and captivating performances. Get ready for a summer filled with wonder, excitement, and growth!

Day 1: As the curtains rise on our first day, we will welcome our talented students to the realm of acting magic. In a realm where creativity reigns supreme, we will establish a harmonious atmosphere by setting positive class expectations. Together, we will embark on a quest to bond and forge everlasting connections through exhilarating warm-up exercises used by the stars of Hollywood. Prepare to shed your inhibitions and embrace trust as we engage in delightful improvisation activities, conquer tongue twisters, and indulge in other captivating warm-ups. To set the stage for our journey, we will explore a variety of scripts and collectively choose the one that will accompany us throughout this magical program. Our day will culminate in a grand table read, where the characters we embody will come to life before our very eyes.

Day 2: Today, we shall delve deeper into the enchanting world of our chosen script. Through the ancient art of table reading, we will immerse ourselves in the rich tapestry of the story, unraveling its essence and unraveling the desires that drive our characters. With each line we speak, we shall infuse it with inflections and imbue it with emotional depth, heightening the stakes and breathing life into our performances. Reflect upon your own everyday interactions, dear students, and discover the objectives and tactics you employ to achieve your desires. By employing various tactics in our performances, we shall witness the transformative power they possess, forever altering the very fabric of the scenes we enact.

Day 3: Today, prepare to breathe life into your characters as we embark on a journey to unleash their full potential. Discover the secrets behind the mesmerizing performances of Hollywood stars as we delve into the art of creating three-dimensional characters. We shall discuss the transformative power of props, costumes, walking styles, and tones. Feel encouraged to dress the part on days 4 and 5, truly embodying the essence of your characters. Engage in intimate group sessions, where we shall read lines, explore the depths of our characters, and embrace the transformative power of performance.

Day 4: As the magical energy courses through our veins, we shall unlock the art of building compelling relationships between characters, weaving intricate backstories that captivate the hearts of audiences. Like the wondrous tales of Stranger Things, Disney and Pixar masterpieces, and captivating episodes, we shall uncover the secrets of relationship-building and infuse our scenes with a genuine sense of connection. Today, we shall explore a range of emotions, allowing them to shape our delivery and performances. Just as the actors of Disney, Pixar, Netflix, and Amazon productions devote themselves to perfecting their craft, we too shall embrace the beauty of emotional exploration.

Day 5: Behold, the time has come for our young performers to take center stage, their talents ready to shine in all their splendor. Guided by the wisdom of their teachers, they shall refine their chosen pieces, infusing them with the alchemy of emotions, skillful prop usage, physical connection, atmospheric ambiance, and captivating vocal inflections. But before the final act, a joyous improvisation awaits, a testament to the growth and camaraderie forged throughout the week. Our journey concludes with a heartfelt discussion, where students can reflect upon their adventures, share their experiences, and bid farewell to their newfound comrades.

Embrace the magic of our Acting Summer Camp, where the mystical allure of the theater intertwines with the joy of self-discovery and the promise of extraordinary performances.
