NBYT’s homeschool performance and production class, offered for children ages 8 through 14, focuses on a different theme or style of theater each session. Discussions about theater history, cultural and social connections, costumes, and props will also include making some items for their own final performances. A Share Day performance,with simple costumes and props, is held during the final class. This pilot class will focus on 1930s and 40s radio with dramas, comedies, sci-fi , and mysteries, with an emphasis on vocal exercises and making our own sound effects for a final production!
