As babies we learn through our senses. And as people, we learn through play! That combo is what this group is all about. Join artist and facilitator Erica Petty for a soothing and social creative hang where you can let your wee one experience the wonders of sensory theatre. Each class, Erica will mix up a multi-sensory offering of materials - things that light up, or make noise, or go crunch, or feel soft, or move wiggly like. Delight your baby and let them explore - and maybe, your own nervous system will be soothed an delighted, too! Erica will offer a loosely structured facilitation of the group, with lots of room to make the experience your own. Take introvert time, visit with others, or share your baby stories and ask questions.
Complimentary tea station provided.
The 10am-11pm class is for anyone with a baby 24 months and under.
Each group is a 4 week commitment.
Amplify your creativity and confidence! Our Teen Acting Program is designed for teen actors, writers, creatives and musicians with little to no experience in the theatre world. This engaging program encourages self-expression, teamwork, and performance through fun, creative exercises and games. Youth will build communication skills, develop emotional awareness, and experience the joy of creating a group performance in a supportive and inclusive environment. Character study, scene work, improv, and stage craft will all play a part in the course.
Each term ends with a simple sharing of work in the studio, for parents and invited guests.
Highly recommend that youth take this program if they are hopeful to audition for, and join, the Advanced Acting Company in future years who perform a full length work in a professional venue.
