Please note, while we outline here some of the goals of the specific academy, the academies are also all collaborative.  Students will have core disciplines and mentors while also being challenged to work with students in other disciplines. This creates a more open and creative cross-disiplinary dialogue and community of  young artists who can work in other artistic “languages.”

Overview
Led by accomplished actor/director Alexis Milligan and actor Jeff Schwager, this program will take you through everything you need to become a better actor.

Specifics
July 29 – August 10, 2012

Students develop skills in acting, movement, voice, imagination, playwriting, improvisation and ensemble collaboration. Mentors guide you through exercises and improvisations that empower you to express yourself onstage, as well as detailed script work which allows you interpret text. Sessions on acting for camera. Each student will also develop an age appropriate monologue piece for both theatrical audition and camera which will be filmed and given to you as a portfolio piece.  

Bring comfortable clothes in which you can move. Be aware that you are expected at the daily warm-up as well as some dance classes (suited to your abilities).
