Acting Adventures: 10 to 12 Week Sessions

Come explore the arts with ArtWorks Academy!

In our Acting Adventures classes, students in 3rd-8th grade learn the importance of using their body, voice, and imagination, while working on a one act play.  These ten to twelve week sessions are perfect for the busy student who wants the opportunity to be in a play. You can enroll your child in the fall and spring session or choose the one that works best for you!

Session 1: The Nutcracker

The legend of the wonderful Nutcracker is depicted in this captivating play. At a gala Christmas Eve party, Clara’s godfather presents her with an amazing Nutcracker in the form of a wooden soldier. Too excited to sleep, she suddenly finds the Nutcracker brought to life. He tells her he is a prince under the wicked enchantment of the Mouse King, and she joins him in a series of adventures in strange lands as he seeks to regain his throne. When she wakes, she finds the Nutcracker gone. Was it a dream or not? Then her godfather returns with his nephew—who just happens to look exactly like the prince!  This is a straight play and NOT a ballet.
