The Gorilla Theatre Offers Acting Class For Teens

ACTING - For Ages 13-18
TEEN ACTORS GANG @ THE GORILLA (TAGG)

TAGG is for teens, age 13-18, interested in developing their acting and theatre skills on a pre-professional level. Students are challenged to be 100% present during every class. Not just there, but there, prepared, focused and ready to collaborate. Each week the students are introduced to different approaches to acting and theatre. The skills learned give the students an arsenal with which they can confidently tackle most acting roles. In addition to class work, students have monologues and scene work for the fall session and collaborate on a short play for the spring session. These projects will require a commitment to the program beyond attending class. Homework is expected each week. But it's theatre, so it's fun homework, right? The short play in the spring is seen by public audiences and is a fully realized production.

Ami Sallee Corley instructs throughout, allowing the classwork to reflect the mainstage season at The Gorilla. Students and parents are encouraged to become season ticket holders and a special TAGG discount applies to students and their families.

Individual instruction is also available to help with the homework between group sessions or to help with outside projects or auditions.
