Classes at Writers Theatre
WT Education will host classes online for the Summer session! We are thrilled to continue offering classes for young people; the perfect way to introduce young people to the arts through creative and active collaboration.
Currently, all classes will be streamed online at their regularly scheduled times. Classes will resume onsite at Writers Theatre on a tentative basis, pending restrictions regarding COVID-19 and the "Shelter In Place" order put out by the State of Illinois, as well as the personal decisions by leadership at Writers Theatre. If classes resume in person, students have the option of attending the course in person or continuing online, pending the discretion of the parent or legal guardian.
SUMMER SESSION

Story Explorers—Ages 5-7
Tuesdays & Thursdays, 2-3pm
July 7 – 30, 2020
Step inside favorite stories and discover worlds unknown! Using improvisation, creative drama and physical theatre, this class will explore what it means to be a storyteller. Aspiring young artists will work together using the three foundational tools of the actor -- voice, body and imagination -- to create their own original characters and tales.
Backyard Bard—Ages 8-10
Tuesdays & Thursdays, 3-4pm
July 7 – 30, 2020
From A Midsummer Night's Dream to The Tempest, this class is designed to introduce students to the timeless work of William Shakespeare to budding young actors. Through voice, movement and creative storytelling, students will explore the realm of fairies, monsters, storms and sailors (and more) as we bring the Bard to life!
