Inspired by the loveable Peanuts characters and the music from You’re a Good Man Charlie Brown, students will learn to “sing a story” by exploring the various voices that can be produced by using appropriate vocal technique. Students will connect voice to posture, gesture, and full-body movement through improvisation to create vivid characters. They will “dance a story” by learning to use creative movement to bring a story to life. Not all actors need to dance, but learning how to use a creative and flexible range of movement will help young actors feel more confident on stage, develop physically interesting characters, and add another skill to their actor toolbox. A final demonstration for family and friends will take place on the last day of class at 2:00 p.m.
