FAQs

Students will learn simple vocal and physical warmups, how to create a character, the basic structure of a play, and how to work together as an ensemble to produce and perform it. Please note:  This is NOT a class covering musical theatre skills although we are able to answer some questions about musical theatre if students have them.

Students will perform the short (10 – 20 minute) play they will create together in our class sessions during the final class session. It will be presented in the classroom rather than on a stage. There will be minimal costume, props, and set pieces. Production elements like lights and sound will not be included.  The focus will be on the acting skills.

Parents, siblings, and any neighbors and friends who are available will be welcome to attend.

Beginners and more experienced students are all welcome in this class.

There will be at least two adults who have been fingerprinted and passed a nationwide background check present at every class session.

This class is available to teens 14 years old through 17 years old.

Siblings registering from the same family will receive the following discounts:

  • 2 students – 20% off each registration fee = $180 per student
  • 3 students – 30% off each registration fee = $140 per student

If you have more than 3 teens in your family who want to take the class, please email info@clamourtheatre.org or call 917-902-7210 to discuss options.

Registration fees are due no later than the beginning of the first class session.  Payment by check or cash is appreciated. If you need to pay electronically, we can send you a PayPal invoice.

There are a limited number of spaces in this class so that we may give each student individual attention. Because of that and because of the collaborative nature of theatre, we ask that you do not register unless your teen is committed to taking the class.
