Young Actors’ Showcase
Adventures in Whoville
Ages 7–8
COVID Safety Guideline: Mason Community Arts Academy follows all safety protocols required by George Mason University. Visit our COVID Safety Guidelines for more information.
OVERVIEW
Our Young Actors’ Showcase will be inspired by the characters and stories from Dr. Seuss books! Join us for new adventures in the colorful world of Dr. Seuss.
This 90-minute class provides a more advanced option for our growing young actors. The cast will have the opportunity to share their work in a final presentation at the end of the session.
This class builds on the basics introduced in our Mini Actors’ Showcase, concentrating on story-structure, characterization, the creative process, and acting techniques. Our young actors will experience a more realized performance, complete with technical elements.
Students are expected to attend all rehearsals and their performances.
Our Young Actors’ Showcase is an excellent training ground for our musical showcases! It is a recommended prerequisite for our Musical Showcase program, and we recommend a minimum of two sessions at this level of study.
