(Open to students in Year 5 and above)
Monday 7th – Friday 11th July
Gehrmann Theatre, Brisbane Girls Grammar School
Calling all theatre kids, drama queens (and kings), and future Oscar winners! This July, we are running a workshop designed for those who love to act.
CIA may be known for our extravagant musicals, but this workshop is a chance for us to hold back on the showtunes and shine a spotlight on the craft of acting. Over 5 days in the July holidays, students in Year 5 and above will unlock their full acting potential as they bring to life an original play written especially for our cast—Lights, Camera, Murder: A Hollywood Whodunnit.
In the more intimate space of BGGS’ Gehrmann Theatre, students will work closely with highly-trained, industry-experienced teachers to sharpen their stage presence, character work and dramatic techniques. Then, on the Friday afternoon, they’ll put those skills to the test in an exhilarating performance.
EVERYONE can benefit from this workshop! As Shakespeare wrote, “the world is a stage”, and acting skills can elevate your every “performance” (on stage or off!).
And if you miss the usual song-and-dance flavour, don’t fret. While this show isn’t a musical, it will incorporate a song or two, so we will be looking to include a few talented singers in this cast.
