THE YOUTH PROGRAM
This program runs during the school year with a 60 minute class each week. It uses our own specially developed games, activities, and performances to give young people skills in the five basic areas of drama: Non-movement, Movement, Voice, Characterization and Improvisation. It provides a great place to meet new friends, develop self-expression, and learn useful skills that will allow any young people to publicly and confidently share who they are with others.
Our program is unique in that it directly links the dramatic skills we teach with the real-life skills so important for success as a young person and as an adult. For example, teaching the dramatic skills involved with tableaux (non-movement), we also teach the related real-life skills involved in reading body language. Thus our members learn how to perform both on stage and in life!
And we guarantee it...

What if a child has no drama experience—can they join?
YES! Our program will give your child a love of drama and the skills to “act-up” with the best of them.
My child does have drama experience—will this program help them?
YES! Many children with drama experience come to us with the need to hone the skills necessary to become more effective on stage. However, the added value of understanding how their drama skills can be used in daily life benefits them greatly.
My son is very shy, hates public speaking, and would be embarrassed to speak in front of others—I can’t imagine him performing before a large crowd. Does he have to perform in your program?
All of our programming is invitational. If participating in the fun games and activities is enough for him then that’s a good place to start. These will help him to develop skills and confidence. However…If you read some of the testimonials from other parents you will see that we are very good at helping kids discover their love to be onstage and performing in front of others. We have had many experiences where a child begins the program not wanting to perform, but when show time arrives-- we couldn’t keep them off the stage if we tried! It is the transformational power of drama.
