PushPush Theatre Announces After-School Workshops

PushPush is offering youths ages 4-17 four SmallTall After-School Workshops in Theater and Film. PushPush's signature workshops are focused around classic literature and give young people a one-of-a-kind experience in story-building, theater and media arts. All workshops are lead by professional working artists.

Pre/Post Production for The Young Filmmakers 13-17
This is a fun and challenging opportunity for young aspiring filmmakers to learn to plan, produce and promote a short film. The workshop will have three components; pre-production (storyboarding, art direction, make-up & costume design, etc.), production (directing, lighting, studio and location shooting etc.) and finally post-production (3-point editing, sound design etc). This workshop is structured to give each participant time to develop their particular area of interest whether they want to direct, shoot, edit or produce.
Mondays and Thursdays, 4:30 - 7:30PM, 2/6 – 4/26 (12 weeks), $375.

Filmmaking for the Young Actor 13-17
This fast paced and exciting workshop is for both beginning and intermediate level filmmakers with a focus on acting. Participants will learn the basics of acting for the camera and film production. Over the course of this workshop we will complete a short film of an original script. We are offering each young actor the opportunity to work on a unique and challenging role through script and character analysis. The production crew will be comprised of participants enrolled in the Pre/Post Production workshop.
Thursdays, 4:30 - 7:00PM, 2/23 – 4/26 (10 weeks), $300

Introduction to Theater for Ages 4-7
This workshop is a fun introduction to scripted text, live performance, collaborative storytelling, and the basics of voice, movement and stage acting. Participants will work with actress and PushPush co-founder Shelby Hofer to stage short stories while learning teamwork and the basics of live drama. This workshop will incorporate theater exercises, games, some memorization, and any other language, musical, and/or artistic skills the participants want to bring into the performance.
Wednesdays, 4:30 - 6:00PM, 2/22 - 3/28, (6 sessions) $225

Acting for Ages 8-12
This is a fun, hands-on way to get your young actor up on stage and in control of their talents. We concentrate on games and assignments designed to focus attention, control voice and movement, and discover challenging ways to express their unique personal voice on stage and screen with the incorporation of video. The group will present a short play at the final workshop.
Tuesdays, 4:30 - 6:00PM, 3/6 - 5/8, (10 sessions) $300
