SUMMARY:Intro to Theatre for Kids (5-8)
DESCRIPTION:This class is designed for younger students ages 5-8 to begin to learn the fundamentals of acting such as storytelling\, creative movement\, vocalization\, and confidence in front of a group. \nThe goal of this class is for students to learn these skills in a way that is fun and enjoyable\, while also creating a safe environment for students to feel like they can explore. In order to accomplish this\, the class is designed with emphasis on different activities and games as opposed to a singular performance. \nWe will utilize familiar and classic children’s stories\, such as Peter Rabbit\, The Rainbow Fish\, The Three Little Pigs\, etc. to build on these skills. Using known stories allows the children to learn how to be creative while still offering a framework for them to follow. For example\, if the story we were looking at that day was The Three Little Pigs\, we might explore how to act as a pig vs wolf by changing how we move and use our voices\, talk about breath support by “blowing down the houses”\, and of course act out the story using all of those elements. \nIn addition to stories we will also play games that encourage creativity and teamwork.  These help students grow an awareness of different ways they can move their bodies\, as well as strengthens their listening skills. By the end of the class your youngster is guaranteed to have a new appreciation for theatre\, and will be ready for more! \nAges 5-8 \nWednesdays 4:30-5:30 \nMay 6-27 \nClass Fee: $76

SUMMARY:Medusa & Circe
DESCRIPTION:Medusa & Circe: An Odyssey\, the Myth that Born Them All is a devised theatrical work created through ARTfactory’s Pied Piper Theatre Intensives\, where ensemble collaboration\, physical storytelling\, and mythic inquiry drive the creative process. Rather than retelling classical myths as fixed narratives\, the piece reimagines Medusa and Circe as central figures in a shared odyssey. Medusa and Circe are no longer cautionary tales or antagonists to heroes\, but myth-makers in their own right—voices emerging from the margins to reclaim agency over their stories.
