In this energy-packed summer program, students will explore the world of acting through improv and scenework. Each student will also develop a 45-60 second audition monologue during the week, so they can be ready for any audition that comes their way. Students will gain confidence in acting, storytelling, and public speaking by learning how to access healthy vocal techniques and utilize their bodies to physicalize dramatic action.

The small group setting in our summer programs allow students a comfortable and inviting space to explore the world of theatre. After our five program learning sessions, students will have the opportunity to share their creative and performance work with their families in our studio showcase.

On the beautiful arts district campus here in Liberty Station, students will explore sculpture, murals, paintings, photographs, and more each morning on our instructor-guided walk-abouts. These art pieces will serve as inspiration for students through a series of writing prompts, as they work on solo material. In the second half of each morning, we will work in the TAS+SD studio on a group devised (collaboratively created, developed and written) piece. The focus of this program is to hone writing skills, broaden the scope of creativity, and to prep students for entry into the California Young Playwrights Contest, a unique opportunity offered to California students each year.

In this energy-packed summer program, students will explore the world of acting through improv and short scene-work and will add two contrasting monologues to their repertoire, so they can be ready for any audition that comes their way. Students will learn memorization tools, such as Memory Palace, to get the lines under their belts quickly so they can move forward in shaping the character and bringing authenticity to their performances. We will explore Viewpoints, Laban, Uta Hagen’s Essential Questions, the Stanislavsky System, as well as a lesson in Emotional Intelligence in order to gain a better understanding of how to breathe life into these pieces.
