Acting for Kids
Theater | Class is not available. Please contact: 607-936-4647.
Aspiring actors and actresses will develop their acting skills and confidence through a variety of fun theater activities with Kali McCraken and Sage Ulrich. Students will work on scene studies, develop stage presence, and learn to focus on their character’s personality and physical characteristics rather than thinking “I hope I’m a good actor!” Group theater games mixed with individual attention will nurture the curiosity and energy of each student culminating in a performance at the end of class.
