Instructor: Nancy Gimblett - Children's Acting Co-ordinator

This "Introduction to Acting" course used a variety of fun and dynamic theatre and acting techniques to teach students how to tap into their imagination. The course explored improvisation, voice, character and movement and improved their communication and performance skills. They had alot of F-U-N ! All children were granted roles for suitable skits, and there were many who registered for this second session!

2nd set of classes began Monday June 22 2009 (ages 5-8) and Wednesday June 24 2009 (ages 9-13), and final performances went off with much applause and laughter at the end of August.

Children's Drama Instructor Nancy Gimblett worked with children aged 5 - 14 for eight weeks using a variety of fun and dynamic theatre and game/skits with acting techniques to teach students how to tap into their imagination.

The weekly classes were only 2 dollars per child to cover incidentals. Nancy, DCT President and veteran actor, is personally committed to helping area youngsters grow strong in confidence and self-esteem by exploring the basics of storytelling, public speaking, diction and voice work, body language and mime, improvisation and character work.
