Stage Left

For Grades 5th – 8th

Stage Left offers a greater challenge to youth actors in grades fifth through eighth looking to enhance their theatrical skill set! Working collaboratively with their peers, young actors in this program will focus on developing advanced audition techniques, stage awareness, actor movement and character development. The program culminates in a fully staged and costumed performance for family and friends.

Grades 5th – 8th

When Sarah is given the choice of writing a ten-page paper about the Greek Gods or producing a short original play, the choice seems obvious, right? A play definitely seems like the easier choice, except that actors are getting sick, costume pieces are missing, techies are tripping over cords, and nobody has a clue how to act! Join First Act for this chaotic and hysterical retelling of Greek stories with a modern twist and plenty of physical comedy that will have your young actors thinking that anybody could write a better original play than Sarah!

Wednesdays @ Edgewood College: October 22nd – December 17th (No Class: November 26th)

Thursdays @ Van Hise Elementary: October 23rd – December 18th (No Class: November 27th)
