Civic Youth Theatre Classes are conducted in a non-competitive atmosphere in which young people can develop their imagination, explore their creative potential and feel positive growth in self-confidence and self-expression. Group-building and ensemble support create a non-failure environment.  Our classroom is the stage, scene shop and lighting booth of the Monon Depot Theatre where students experience "hands-on" learning in a vital and creative arena.

 

 EXPLORING THE THEATRE

Students will learn how to take the imagination from their world and use it in  the theatre.  They will learn basic acting techniques and characterization, using skits, and games.  The final day of class will be a share day.  Parents are invited to watch class and see the skills their child has developed over the 6-week period.
