Let’s take scenes from classic books and bring them to life! Act is a graphic novel by Kayla Miller and it follows Olive, who is excited to start sixth grade: new teachers, new experiences, and a field trip to the big city with her best buds! But when Olive finds out that a school policy is keeping some kids from going on the trip, she decides to act. She's prepared to do whatever it takes to be heard—even if it means running against Trent and Sawyer, two of her closest friends, in the student council election! With intense campaign competition and emotions running high, can Olive make a big change and keep her friends? New York Times bestselling author-illustrator Kayla Miller crafts a genuine and inspiring story about evolving friendships, supportive family, and finding out that you—yes, you —have the power to make a difference.” You will practice the building blocks of acting such as memorization and projecting your voice, but your confidence as an actor will really grow as you explore what it means to create fully formed, three dimensional characters! We will record performances from the final session for you to share with your family and friends.

All classes this fall will be held via Zoom. You will receive an email with more info and a Zoom link prior to the first day of class at the email you use for registration.
