Physical Comedy |

Ages 8 – 11

Get ready to laugh, move, and make a scene! In this playful class, students ages 8–11 will discover the art of physical comedy through movement, improvisation, character work, and mask technique. From exaggerated reactions and larger-than-life characters, comic timing, and expressive storytelling, young performers will learn how their bodies can become powerful tools for making an audience laugh.

Through fun theater games and creative exercises, students will build confidence, spontaneity, physical awareness, and collaboration skills while discovering what makes comedy work onstage. No experience necessary.
