First Act! is a theater class that teaches acting, character development, stage management, and design. Participants will gain an appreciation for a theater production and learn what goes on behind the stage. They will do warm-up activities, acting games, improv, and play analysis. They will learn to use their "stage voice" to project, and their body language to build character. Students will perform a short, 10-minute play on the last day of the 6-week session for parents and friends. This class will help the out-going child focus their energies and the shy child to come out of their shell.
Classes are held on Mondays, 5:00 - 6:30 p.m. at Springfield Township Community Arts Center, 9158 Winton Rd, Building A, behind the fire station. No class on Monday Holidays of MLK Day, Memorial Day, Labor Day, and the week of Thanksgiving.
