Musical Theatre Camp - Flash Mob Medley (ages 8-13)

Young performers will sing, dance and act in this class that features triple threat training. Kids will learn about the new trend of 'flash mob' theatre; they will rehearse a variety of poses, scenes, jokes and songs towards our final show. The performance will feature kids coming alive from forozen poses to show-off finely choreogrgaphed numbers inspired by director Eliza Gardiner's recent work with the 'Freeze Flames Troupe', who wowed crowds at the Vancouver 2010 Winter Olympics. The cast will learn how to create isolations and tableaus, will work on dialogue, recite solo speeches, and perform big group numbers too! Famous musical pieces, actors as statues, and comic Italian bits called 'lazzi' are featured in this course. We will play acting games, have fun with theatre sports, and build some funk-ional props and costume pieces; we will focus on focus, facial expression, engagment, vocals, characterization, comic timing, line delivery, projection and group dynamics. Wear comfortable clothes; and bring water, creativity, and commitment.
