For elementary school actors ready to grow, this class combines improvisation with scene study. Students build storytelling skills through fun improv games while also diving into basic acting skills: clarity of thought and action, mental agility, spontaneity, actively listening and responding, and creative problem-solving. The foundation of acting training and scene work gives students the opportunity to dive deep into character creation, text analysis, and acting technique.

Harness the popular role-playing game D&D to form a new kind of ensemble: the Adventuring Improv Party!  Instead of retelling an already-existing story, we customize each adventure for maximum creativity and theatrical challenge! Actors will create bold characters, overcome obstacles, and make strategic and innovative choices on the spot as they use long-form improvisation as a storytelling tool. Each improv acting class will feed into the next, in an ongoing original story that encourages actors to work together both as characters and as collaborators designing an expansive story — their own epic adventure!

Improve Acting Skills 

Perform in a Fully Staged Production 

In this class, students will be part of a close-knit ensemble, gaining personalized training that sharpens their acting, improv, and physical theatre technique. Students will build confidence, form lasting friendships, and gain experience by working as a team to bring a play to life. 

Each production is led by a professional director and supported by a whole creative team. From custom costumes to sets to props, sound, and lighting, students will perform four public performances at our Studio in Tysons Corner Center.
