Classes for High School students are designed to further develop young artists as they fine tune their skills and prepare for further education at the college level.  Additionally their classes will include play analysis, “How to Audition”, and scene study.  Many of these students may be new to these skills, and others may have worked on them for some time.  Expectations will be on an individual basis, but all will learn from each other.  We become better actors when we become better observers.  When you are aware of your world you will grow as an artist.
