The Old Globe Theatre has announced their upcoming educational events schedule:

Saturdays, April 10 and 24, May 8 and 22, June 5 and 19 ? Karen and Donald Cohn Education Center
THEATRE TOTS
Theatre Tots is a series of 90-minute Saturday morning classes that introduce children ages 4, 5 and 6 to the art of acting through the exploration of children's literature. Led by an Old Globe Teaching Artist, the students are introduced to the elements of story, voice, movement and imagination through an interactive read-aloud story time. Parents return for the final 15 minutes of class to watch their children perform a short play presentation of the story of the day.
Cost per class: $25. (A 10% discount for enrollment in three or more classes.)

Weekdays, July 26 - 30 and August 2 - 6 from 10:00 a.m. to 3:00 p.m. ? Karen and Donald Cohn Education Center
MIDDLE SCHOOL SUMMER INTENSIVE
The Middle School Summer Intensive is a two-week program that provides students in grades 6, 7 and 8 with powerful theater training in a professional-level environment. Instructed by Old Globe Teaching Artists, students will participate in daily physical, vocal and creative exercises and participate in workshops with members of the Globe/USD Master of Fine Arts program and the professional actors of the Summer Shakespeare Festival. The series of 10 five-hour sessions includes training in movement, voice and speech, improvisation and stage combat. Students will also go behind the scenes at the Globe's three theater facilities to meet artists and technicians and learn first-hand how a professional theater operates. On the final day of class, the students will present a 45-minute performance of scenes and demonstrations of theater exercises for friends and family in the Globe's new Hattox Hall.
Cost per student: $550
