Description
Our Speech Drama and Acting classes for teens are perfect for students aged 13-18 in 1st – 6th year.
This 3 hour class is split into three concentrated sections. Firstly, we focus on building clear and confident communication through vocal work, team building exercises and improvisation. Secondly, we cover group performance work, including scripted and student-devised material, through movement exercises and ensemble work. Lastly, we focus on solo performance and scene partner work through monologues, duologues, poetry performance and reading aloud.
