Drama Instruction Ongoing
Now enrolling for Youth Christian-Theatre Drama Classes. Ages six years old through high school. This is an interesting way to introduce youth to the world of drama. There will be opportunities to touch on the many facets of drama; including drama games, monologues, improv, group mini-plays, playwriting, and more. The younger children will start learning based on their literacy level and by acting out some of their favorite Bible stories and fairy tales. Each student will have the opportunity to work on a monologue, write a script, and perform. This is a great volunteer opportunity as well. If you are interested in this class or in volunteering, contact Shelleen
