The Coterie Theatre School’s new online acting classes are designed to engage students intellectually, emotionally, and physically. Classes of no more than ten students will be led by a trained teaching artist who can see and respond to every student, encouraging active participation. Using lesson plans that focus on the growth of each student individually, process-based learning establishes a foundation of invaluable skills that all acting training builds on, including important life skills that will be useful to any growing mind, whether or not acting may be in their future. Parents of younger children are encouraged to participate in the class with their child, leading to interactive play that lets loose the child’s imagination and becomes part of the larger story being created by the entire class. Older students are challenged to hone their acting talents with instruction and attention from a theatre professional working in the field. Parents or guardians are invited to observe all class sessions and enrollees need only to have access to a smart phone, tablet, laptop, or desktop computer with a camera & microphone, and an internet connection. Coterie acting classes offer quality screen time that will allow students of all ages to express themselves, occupy their imaginations, and help add structure and positivity to their week.
Classes for Ages 3-5 are six 1-hour sessions held over six weeks for $75.00 per student. Classes for Grades K-12 are six 90-minute sessions held over six weeks and costs $85.00 per student. Financial assistance is available as needed. Contact Amanda Kibler at akibler@coterietheatre.org to apply.
