[Capdist-auditions] 2 Workshops! Acting Through Song for Teens and Middle School -- Fee Required

[Berenis, Leigh]

Acting Through Song Workshop with Kevin Stevens

9th Grade - College

This class is limited to 10 participants. Fee:$80
Auditing Fee (Observe Only):$25

*Reserve your spot by emailing Leigh at leigh at saratogachildrenstheatre.org
<leigh at saratogachildrenstheatre.org>!*

We approach the playing of a song like we approach the playing of a
monologue, but we are restricted by the musical rhythm (like in
Shakespeare, we must stick to the metre). This indicates to us a certain
flow of the song, but still allows us our own way of approaching the song,
and how we play it.


This workshop will be a 2 day workshop. Saturday, January 20th from 6-8pm
 and Sunday, January 21st 2-4pm

Please bring in your book or a song of any genre (musical theatre,
classical, pop/rock, etc.) that you would like to work on. On the first day
you will be able to show you material and work with Kevin and the second
day you will come back having worked on the areas you and Kevin talked
about. The class will participate in discussion and learn from watching
each other work through the process as well as participating!
