These courses encourage the development of many of the skills necessary to be successful in a theatrical context. They focus on the development of vocal skills (such as articulation, enunciation, and projection) and basic stage skills like blocking and movement. In order to be successful in this class, students will be required to perform two monologues and a variety of scripted and improvised material which will require memorization, rehearsal, and self-discipline. A goal will be to create a performance in Spectrum’s Theatre.
The course will include a unit on theatrical make up and mask making.
