**Early Bird Special $50 until October 15th then $55.
In this fast-paced workshop, students will explore the foundations of stage combat and what it takes to perform a safe and effective fight on stage. Throughout the workshop, students will learn how fundamental acting techniques apply to physical and emotional conflict on stage as they explore basic unarmed stage combat techniques and terminology including falling, grappling, punches, and kicks. Students will also learn how actors work together to tell a dynamic and compelling story through the performance of a short fight scene.
Stage combat is a great way to improve acting skills, enhance physical awareness, and explore new methods of storytelling. It's also fun!
