Would you like to learn more about theater? And would you like to create a performance together with others? In Youth Theatre 2 you work on acting, text and teamwork. You make theater together. You go on a journey as a group, with the teacher as your guide. You know roughly where you are working towards, but along the way you discover together how the performance takes shape.
This class year you will start with a short introductory block. Then you will work with the group on a performance. That performance will arise from a theater text, book, story or film.
In the beginning, you examine the text and roles. You learn how to understand a text and how to build a character. You also play scenes in different ways. This is how you discover what works and what suits the group.
Then you make choices. What do you want to tell? Which scenes will stay? How do you play believably? And how do you make sure you work well together on stage? In the last phase you will also think about music and design. Then you play the performance a few times in a row. This way everything grows into a whole.
Youth Theatre 2 is for young people as young as 3e high school class. You do not need to have experience with theater.
You will have a 2-hour class each week. Classes are from 6:30 to 8:30 p.m. The course consists of 25 lessons.
You don't have to purchase anything yourself.
Sometimes you practice with text or acting at home. This helps you get to know your role better and play it more confidently.
The lessons are active and interactive. You are mostly playing, practicing and trying out a lot. You work with text, scenes and assignments. Sometimes you play in small groups. Sometimes you work with the whole group. You also watch and learn from each other's play.
At Platform C you will be taught in a safe and creative atmosphere. You get the space to show yourself and discover new sides of yourself. The teacher guides the group as a director. You receive help with text, acting, role construction and ensemble playing. In this way you grow as a player and as part of the group.
After Youth Theatre 2, you have more experience with acting, text and acting together. You know better how to build a role and how to play a scene believably. You have also experienced how to create a performance together. From first idea to performance in front of an audience. You are more confident on stage and know how much fun theater can be.
