YOUR 2012 SUMMER ON STAGE
 
 

THEATER CAMP NEW YORK CITY / QUEENS

TEEN ACTING ENSEMBLE

SUMMER 2012

 FOR TALENTED YOUNG ACTORS
14 - 19 & PRE-COLLEGE

July  2 - 29, 2012

BY AUDITION. SEE INFO BELOW.

This Workshop is for talented young actors and actresses, ages 14 - 19, who want to focus on  acting and performance skills.  This is a four-week intensive that ends with a public performance of a fully-staged play.  (See photos of past productions.)   

  The program immerses teen students in the world of acting in a professional, supportive, and creative atmosphere.  Each student will rehearse and perform a fully staged play at the  Shadow Box Theatre on the Queensborough campus on the final weekend of the workshop.

 

The Acting Ensemble is in residence in the Shadow Box Theatre.   The students will perform a fully staged play, such as our 2011 production of  PRIDE & PREJUDICE, commissioned exclusively for our talented actors!

 


The Teen Acting Workshop ALSO includes classes with  working Theatre Arts Professionals in acting, voice and diction, movement, on-camera technique, stage combat, mime, Alexander, stage make-up, period styles, audition technique, improvisation, and other performing arts.  Working Guest Artists, such as Rod Kinter (fight choreographer for NYCity Opera), Jen Nails (NYC People's Improv Theatre), Debra Whitfield (Prof. director and teacher), and Shira-Lee Shalit (award winning film acting teacher) and Casting Directors teach specialized classes throughout the four weeks.

 

 

 

 

 

TYPICAL DAY

 

A typical day for the Acting Ensemble includes a variety of theatre arts and acting classes during the morning hours and then, after lunch,  rehearsals for the show they will be performing.  


The workshop is a full day, 9:00 a.m. to 4:00 p.m.; Monday - Friday WITH final weekend performances.


All students will have a FEATURED speaking part in the final play presented by the Ensemble.  The 2012 script will be chosen in the Spring.  Students will receive scripts for the show in June and auditions for the play will take place during the first week of the workshop.

 

 

 Great preparation for those young actors who are looking to be accepted into performing arts schools and colleges.  Many Theatre Arts Center students are enrolled in local performing arts high schools, such as LaGuardia, and choose to continue their theatre studies professionally and at specialized universities and conservatories.

 

TEEN CABARET & AUDITION WORKSHOP

Students who are accepted into the Acting Ensemble may also be interested in a fifth week add-on.  The workshop will focus on vocal performance, monologues, stand-up and all aspects of audition preparation and technique, including song selection, monologues, cold readings, dance, and more.  Learn from working professionals.  
The workshop will culminate with a studio performance of monologues and songs for parents and friends.
