Fall Mini Actors’ Showcase

The Little Ogres

Overview

Inspired by Disney’s Shrek movies and the hit Broadway musical. Join Shrek, Fiona, Donkey, and other beloved characters for a brand new story!

In this 60-minute class, our youngest actors are introduced to the building blocks of acting and theater. Great for new and returning actors, this class encourages students to use their imaginations in a fun and safe environment, and gain confidence as they learn the process of putting on a play. In addition to growing through acting training, the cast will have the opportunity to share their work in a final presentation at the end of the session. 

Students are expected to attend all rehearsals and their performance.

The Mini Actors’ Showcase is a recommended prerequisite for our other programs and we recommend a minimum of two sessions at this level of study.
