Students also have the opportunity to sign up for production and tech training.

Theatre basics is a session of classes designed for older elementary, middle, and high school students to gain an understanding of the foundations of theatre and performance. Students will learn foundations of the theatre including teamwork, communication skills, core theatre values, self-confidence, problem solving, and more through both ensemble and individual work.

 In Theatre Basics, students will learn skills to widen their experience in the world of theatre. In this course, students will have the opportunity to practice character development and performance skills through individual and ensemble work which will help them level up on the stage.
