Description
Acting / 3-5 / Period 5 / KK / T1-T2-T3
During first and third trimesters, this class will introduce acting techniques to new students and continue to grow with more advance techniques for those that have been enrolled in past years. These exercises will allow students to grow in their skills and confidence without the large audience. All “performing” is done inside the classroom.
We will begin each class by explaining one or two games/techniques (depending on time). These techniques will focus on the many aspects of both verbal and non-verbal acting. We will work as a large group first, then continue the game(s) in smaller circles. For the second part of class, we will work on small group skits. We “perform” the skits in class weeks 8-10, and I video record them for the private viewing of MCA families. No formal grade will be given for this elective class. Students are required to memorize their lines for the skits by due dates listed in the syllabus.
During second trimester, this class has the option to audition for the play that the fourth hour acting class will perform. This will require actors to stay longer on some Wednesdays for rehearsals, attend during fourth hour (if not taking a class then), and there will be a few outside of the MCA day rehearsals to prepare for performance week. The play will be performed on February 25, 26, & 27, 2027.
