Civic Youth Theatre Classes are conducted in a non-competitive atmosphere in which young people can develop their imagination, explore their creative potential and feel positive growth in self-confidence and self-expression. Group-building and ensemble support create a non-failure environment.  Our classroom is the stage, scene shop and lighting booth of the Monon Depot Theatre where students experience "hands-on" learning in a vital and creative arena.

 

Aesop Theatre

Grades 1-3

4:30 pm -5:30 pm

Tuesdays: September 21-November 9

Students create characters from Aesop’s Fables and put them on the stage using movement and music.  They will learn basic acting techniques and characterization, using skits and games. After the last class, there will be a small showcase for family and friends.

 

 

Intro to Musical Theatre

Grades 4-6

4:30-pm 5:30 pm

Wednesdays: September 22-November 10

Using scenes and songs from a variety of musicals, students will discover the world of musical theatre. They will learn choreography, breathing techniques and basic acting skills to putting on a musical!  The last day of class will be followed by a small performance for family and friends.

 

 

Script Analysis and Characterization

Grades 7+

5:00 pm -6:00 pm

Mondays: September 20-November 8

This class will delve into script analysis as a way to learn more about characterization techniques from a

classical point of view.  This is not a performance class and is geared toward the more serious actor.  This class will help students who plan on auditioning for the winter production of Macbeth, and other challenging roles in the future for both Civic Youth Theatre and MainStage productions.  Please note that the time of this class is later than usual.
