Spring Children’s Theater Classes

with Tracy Diamond Allen

This Spring, Crozet Arts will offer two children’s theater classes with Tracy Diamond Allen.  In a fun, creative and non-competitive atmosphere, these classes aim to stimulate children’s imagination & creativity, inspire inventiveness, challenge children to work creatively in a group while developing their own individuality, and build communication skills.  Classes will explore a range of theater activities including (as time allows) theater games, improvisation, story telling/enacting, poetry & verse, voice exercises & jingles, characterization, group scenes, musical movement & expression and (for older children) performance skills.
