Discover the FUNdamentals of theatrical performance!

This class is appropriate for students who have taken a Fundamentals of Drama class before or for the enthusiastic newcomer. 

Gabriel’s 14-week theatre basics class for ages 6-9 promises fun, connection, laughter, and growth. Activities include creative improvisation games, concentration games, and story-building games. Additionally, tips are provided on how to tell a dynamic story and play dynamic characters… using faces, voice, body language.  Students will gain confidence in their abilities to express themselves and learn about the world of acting.  In this creative and supportive environment, your child will get to know the people around them and learn how to work as a team to create the magic of theatre!

Update Spring 2025

Gabriel is excited to offer a direct continuation of this class post Winter break, aimed for those who took the class in the Fall and also opening registration for newcomers. 

Students of this class will have an opportunity to explore the Heritage Playhouse with other DTS students and present theatre exercises (like improv games) during the DTS Showcase Sunday April 27, 2025.
