Spring 2010 – Class Descriptions
Expand your theatrical horizons with NEW convenient mini-sessions!
In order to provide your young performer with many different theatrical experiences and options, the Old Opera House Acting Studio is now offering shorter class sessions. This will allow students to pick several different areas of concentration.
All classes are for ages 8 to 18.
Instructional Classes help prepare students for on-stage experience. Not only will students learn the basics for dramatic and musical theater, but they will gain confidence, self-discipline and the value of team work as well. Instructional classes are great for all experience levels and are a wonderful addition to performance classes.

Performance Classes are designed to allow students to use their talents on stage. Performance classes are open to all interested, but are cast based on auditions held during class time. At the end of the semester students will put on a performance for family members, to be performed at the scheduled class time.
