About the Course
This fun and dynamic course welcomes participants of all ages and experience levels—from complete beginners to actors looking to refresh and strengthen their skills. Students will explore
creativity, build confidence, and develop communication skills through theatre games, improvisation, and performance-based exercises.
Designed for kids and adults alike, this class is perfect for anyone who loves stories—listening to them, telling them, watching them, or writing them. Participants will work collaboratively to explore
character, voice, movement, and imagination while adapting famous film scenes for the stage.
Do you recognize these famous movie lines?
“Just keep swimming.” “You’ve been hoodwinked.” “Let it go.” “Life is like a box of chocolates.” “With great power comes great responsibility.” “I’ll have what she’s having.” “To infinity and beyond!” “You can’t handle the truth!” “Cowabunga!” “There’s no place like home.” “Be there and be square.” “Here’s looking at you, kid.” “I may be poor, I may be ugly...”
Example Activity: Memorize a famous line from a film, explore the character and voice behind it, and create an
entirely new story inspired by that single line. This is just one of the many playful, high-energy improv
games you’ll get to try!
