Session F: Classical Acting Lab: Greek Theatre (Grades 8-12)

Meets 9 am – 4 pm, Monday through Friday.

This is an advanced acting class. It is recommended that you have participated in an STC show or camp previously.

It may not have been the root of all theatre, but no one can deny the impact of Greek tragedies on our modern theatre. Join us as we stage scenes from classic plays such as Oedipus Rex, Agamemnon, The Birds, and even next year’s teen show Antigone. Diving into these complex texts, we’ll discover the importance a Greek chorus, unearth the meaning behind Aristotle’s Five-Act-Structure, and experiment with mask work.
