Session Title: The Drama Effect

Theme: Captivating Audiences with Fundamental Drama Techniques

“The Drama Effect” is a dynamic spring session that delves into the fundamentals of theatre. The phrase in context typically refers to the impact or power of dramatic elements to engage, captivate, and evoke emotions in the audience. It encompasses various techniques, such as compelling storytelling, dynamic characters, intense conflicts, emotional depth, and theatrical devices like lighting, sound, and staging.

During this session, participants will focus on creating an immersive experience for the audience, drawing them into the world of theatre and eliciting strong emotional responses. It can range from moments of tension and suspense to cathartic release, depending on the nature of the production and the intentions of the playwright, director, and performers.

Overall, “The Drama Effect” in theatre is about the ability of theatrical performances to provoke thought, evoke empathy, and leave a lasting impression on those who experience it. Each workshop is designed to help participants hone their acting voice and cast/crew skills on stage. Participants develop on stage presence, build confidence, understand the importance of “follow through” and improve public speaking, leadership, self-expression and team work. This is an awesome opportunity for participants to take their acting skills to the next level! Let’s “Act Up” and work together to produce a spectacular performances! Ages 8-17…WE. ACT. UP!
