THE
NORTH CANTON PLAYHOUSE
And ALMOST NEW YORK STUDIO
IS
OFFERING A FALL ACTING WORKSHOP 2008 FOR AGES 7-13
"ALIAS
SMEDLEY PEWTREE"
One
of the most fun styles of theatre to perform, this Melodrama
of the old West is full of slapstick antics and a corny plot!
We have our villain, heroine, hero and silly townfolk characters
who come together to present a one-act full of laughs! The
audience joins in, of course, to boo and hiss the evil villain!
Put in a few catchy tunes, and the students get to act, sing
and lightly dance their way through a good time. These workshops
are great for beginning or experienced students! Boys especially
will enjoy the cowboy themed characters! Class size is limited
to 24 students and registrations are accepted on a first-received
basis.

SEMI-PRIVATE
ACTING CLASSES
By Lisa Paynter
These
lessons are for students ages 12 - 16, who are genuinely and
seriously interested in the art of acting. Prerequisites:
Students should have had at least one acting class previously
and/or have participated in a play production.
Classes
will consist of dramatic scene work, some scenes with mature
subject matter (yet still deemed appropriate by the director
for teens); therefore, a parental permission form will need
to be signed at the first class.
As
these are semi-private acting lessons, class number will be
limited to 6 students. The students will work very closely
over the 12 week period. They will work intensely on scene
and character work, learning to perform indicidually and as
an ensemble. Students will perform for family/friends at the
last class.
If
you have any questions, particularly regarding your child's
readiness for such a class and information regarding the specific
scene work, you may contact the director, LIsa Paynter at
(330) 933-1800.
