13th - 17th January
"Drama For Teengers" participants will use music, dance, spoken word, action and stillness to create a contemporary piece of theatre.
Exploring the theories and praxis from Alexander, Chubback, Meisner and Stanislavsky the students will delve into a world of the unknown (or known) to find new ways to bring the work to life. Students will spend a fun filled week building a performance for the end of the week that will showcase their talent, skills and collaboration.

Starting with team building and drama games, students will gather skills over the week. Time will be set aside each day for warm ups, skill building and rehearsing so that the result at the end of the week demonstrates the power of the performer.
Skills include:
• Mime, movement, gesture – using the body
• Voice – creating a character through voice and delivering dialogue
• Building characters through observation, masks and costume
• Creating and performing a story
Students will gain experience in performance preparation – settling those nerves; working with an audience and understanding the theatre environment.
At the end of the week I hope they share my idea that a week spent performing is the absolute best fun!
