Scene Study for Young Thespians

Service Description

Key elements of this class: Partnered Scene Work: Students will work one-on-one with a scene partner to analyze and perform scenes from plays or scripts, allowing them to practice interacting and responding to another character.  Character Development: Through discussion and exercises, students will explore their character's motivations, backstory, and emotional states to create a believable persona.   Relationship Development: Students will focus on how their character interacts with their scene partner, building the dynamics of their relationship within the scene.  Basic Method Acting Techniques: Age-appropriate "Method" exercises, such as "sense memory" or "emotional recall" can be introduced to help students connect with their characters on a deeper level.  Improvisation: Incorporating improvisational games and scenarios helps students develop spontaneity and quick character response.  Fun and Engaging Conclusion: The class will culminate in a performance of a scene or short play, where students can showcase their character development and acting skills in a fun and supportive environment. ​
