Happy #FrontRowFriday, Encore fans! We’re buzzing with the energy that a new year brings. We’re psyched to get started with the Winter session of Encore’s theatre classes. We’ve got so much in store, for old friends and new. Read on to learn just a few fun faces you can expect to see…
Imaginary Friends
Join your teacher and classmates in Let’s Play Pretend as you explore different themes and imagined environments throughout the Winter session. With a new focus and friends each class, this adventure is great for both first-timers and repeat participants.
Harold and His Purple Crayon
Take inspiration from this literary favorite and let your creativity run wild! Branch out to create new stories, characters, and entire worlds. This class is a wonderful first step into theatre for those who are getting familiar with a more structured classroom environment.
Your Favorite Personalit-seas
Who knows which tour guides may lead you through your new underwater home – the Rainbow Fish, Sebastian, or maybe even Nemo! The class will work together to develop plots and scenarios surrounding some of our favorite aquatic characters.
Robin Hood
Already excited for Encore’s upcoming production of Robin Hood? What better way to shorten the wait? Take your acting abilities to the next level as you collaborate with classmates to stage scenes with the help of your teacher as you explore the world of Robin Hood and his merry band.
The Chorus Line
Do you watch The Greatest Showman, So You Think You Can Dance, or classic movie musicals with stars in your eyes? Saturday Showstoppers is your ticket to the top! You’ll work towards joining the chorus line of your dreams in this energetic musical theatre class. A 5, 6, 7, 8!
Your Own Creation
Encore is excited to premiere a brand-new class series on Monday evenings, for grades 6-12: The Actor Creates! Work closely with a professional teaching artist to develop the skills that bring performers success onstage, on screen, and beyond!
So we’ve reviewed some familiar faces you may come across in our Winter classes, but we almost forgot the most important one…yours! Will you brighten our day and join us on a theatre adventure? Visit our website or call our offices at 703-548-1154 to register today!
