October 25 – November 22

Many acting schools and programs teach a variety of acting techniques, but it is up to the individual to find the specific process that works for that specific individual. So, in “Finding Your Process,” we will explore the process of finding what works for you to create a character on stage. Because once you have that process, that technique, you can always go to that process whether you are acting in Shakespeare, Musical Theatre, or film.

Fight Choreography

Teacher: Ilich Guardiola
Ages 12-18

Saturday mornings 11:15am – 12:15pm

October 25 – November 22

$75 for five high-intensity 1-hour classes

Whether you are watching a swordfight, a fist fight, or a simple slap, acts of violence do not really occur on stage. Like all special effects, they only seem to happen. Actors in this class will learn how to work slowly and methodically through fight choreography, learning how to follow the rules for stage combat in order to create a good fight spectacle while never hurting anyone.

SAVE $25 – Take BOTH of Ilich's classes for $150.
