What: The spring HCT Theatre Academy program focuses on developing and refining performance skills with a combination of workshop training and rehearsal for a recital performance based on Aesop’s Fables.
The first hour of the class will be focusing on practical things to help you grow as an actor, such as: how to audition, how to build a character, accents, movement, improv, and pantomime.
During the second half of the class time, we will be rehearsing for a play, Aesop’s Fables. You will have the chance to enjoy the storyteller’s theatre as you change from actor to character and back to actor again.
“The fun for me in collaboration is, one, working with other people just makes you smarter; that’s proven.”
– Lin Manuel Miranda
