Berlin International Youth Theatre
An opportunity to develop acting skills, build self esteem, make theatre in a real theatre, and make new friends!
Taught by experienced, professional American actress and director Priscilla Bergey.
For fluent English speakers ages 10 to 17
The main focus of these workshops is discovering the magic of theatre. How does it happen? Where does it come from? This process involves stretching and strengthening the basic actors tools which you already possess - your imagination, body and voice.
The first part of the workshop consists of fun relaxing theatre games to free the imagination, make us feel comfortable in the group, and inspire self-confidence. The second part of the session is based on scene building exercises, character analysis, and improvisations which include working with text, (memorization, interpretation, as well as the creating of original text).
Throughout the term we will be working on creating our own full length production which will be performed in the theatre in June 2012
BIYT is now accepting new members. You are invited to come and check us out. Classes meet every Saturday and are sometimes held during school holidays as well.
