French-English bilingual theatre workshops for children from 8 to 12 years old in Courbevoie

Theatre workshops for children from 8 to 12 years old in Courbevoie

Bilingual theatre workshop goals:

• Discover the theatre experience, with gradual and playful introduction of the English language over the course of the year.
• Experience and enjoy English ‘in action’, through play and on-stage activities. Offer a non-scholastic, alternative experience of the English language

All our exercises have been developed with the aim of introducing and fostering the qualities integral to a young actor:

• Working with the body
• Performing emotions and passions
• Developing a sense of space
• Finding a place in a group onstage, and knowing how to give and take the “focus”
• Maintaining concentration,
• Developing diction and spoken volume, in English and in French
• Improvising

A typical workshop’s activities include:

• A song or concentration game to bring the group together,
• Warm ups (body, voice, then theatre),
• A theatre exercise, tied to the session aims,
• Each session ends with an opportunity to share in each other’s experiences
