"Acting Up in Class" is Okay at the Lofte
At the Lofte Community Theatre in Manley, acting up in class is not only accepted, but strongly encouraged. Back by popular demand, the Lofte is gathering its most talented artists in a classroom environment to teach and prepare young actors and actresses. Four separate classroom sessions will cover Acting Basics, Intro to Dance, Vocal Audition and Stage Combat.
This one-day theater workshop will take place on Saturday, January 23 from 10am to 2:30pm. Enrollment is open to young people ages 10-18 at any level of experience. Space for this event is limited and slots will be filled on a first come, first served basis. Classes will run from 10am-2:30pm on Saturday, January 23rd. Participants should plan on arriving fifteen minutes early for check-in.
Tuition for the one-day workshop is $50 per student and includes a box lunch. Each student will also receive a graduation gift.
