Inspired by the story and music of The Jungle Book, 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. At the last class, family and friends are invited to join the group to watch the creative process in action.
