Explore the exciting world of acting and fairytales. During the first few weeks of class, we will explore different stories and students will bring the books to life with a series of acting exercises and games. During the last 3 weeks of class, we will focus on one book and students will have the opportunity to create a short play based on that fairytale.  We will rehearse our show and prepare for our big performance on the last day of class! Students will learn acting basics, self-expression, and confidence in this fun and active class.

**Showtime is 3:20 on the last day of class!
