Summer Acting Classes for adults

july 7th - 30th mondays & Wednesdays 6:00 pm - 7:30 pm At Key City Public Theatre

Come and join our Scene Study course and explore scene interpretation through a workshop approach. All participants will be assigned a scene from a published play and will take a deep dive into bringing their scenes to life. Each actor will be guided on how to analyze text and character; focusing on identifying objectives and tactics, status, listening, improvisation, and rehearsal techniques. In a supportive and fun environment, adult actors will work their acting muscles to bring their scene from page to stage. This course is welcome to all levels of experience.
