Pre-Professional Ensemble
STC’s Pre-Professional Ensemble program allows students to tap into their imagination by starting a lifelong relationship with theatre. In a nurturing, non-competitive atmosphere, students, gain self-confidence, increase skills in public speaking and cooperation. With concentration on character development, improvisation, and the rehearsal process, ensemble classes incorporate theatre games, scene study and audition techniques for students with all levels of experience. Sessions culminate in a presentation of an original play and/or monologues for family and friends.
