TRIMESTER ACTING CLASSES
For students in grades K-12 who are just beginning to discover the joy of performing arts, or are too busy to take our year-round classes, we offer after school and Saturday acting courses at the theater. These sessions focus on the fundamentals of theater including character building, scene-study, playwriting and improvisation and are taught by our education staff. Each class culminates in a performance open to friends and family. Note: Dates and times are approximate. You will be contacted with specific start dates/end dates upon registration.

SPECIALTY PROGRAMMING
Playreading Aloud!
High school students are invited to expand their theatrical horizons in the Playreading Aloud program. The group meets every other Wednesday at 3pm to read contemporary plays that they might not otherwise be exposed to until college or beyond. Students meet at the theater to learn about, read, and discuss plays by Tony Kushner, Sarah Ruhl, Neil Simon, Caryl Churchill, Jose Rivera, Christopher Durang, David Mamet, Paula Vogel, Connie Congdon, and many more! Playreading Aloud meets every other Wednesday beginning mid-September 14. For more information email education@trinityrep.com. Free.
Musical Theater Dance!
In this class, students will learn fundamental dance skills and experience an array of musical theatre performance styles. We will learn existing sequences of classic choreography and create original combinations and routines, delving into the characters and plot lines that inspire dance on stage. Taught by Shura Baryshnikov.
High School Ambassadors
Since 1996, Trinity Rep's High School Theater Ambassadors program has brought together talented teens from communites across Rhode Island and southeast Massachusetts, united by their common interest in theater. Participation is free.
