Spring and Fall

Teen performance lab

AGES 11 TO 16​

“I will forever credit the playhouse experience and you guys for being a huge influence in the person that my son is today. That success and the confidence it gave him are what every child should experience during those formative years. The confidence that he exudes now and his interaction with adults were all shaped by that experience. I applaud you for the incredible work that you do. What a legacy you leave behind you.” Carol C.
Picture
A specially designed workshop program for teens aged 11 to 16 where students plunge into the world of theatre and acting through a unique experience only found at Santa Monica Playhouse. Members work with theatre professionals in a supportive and dynamic atmosphere to create a performance piece based on the world they live in, unleashing each student's unlimited creativity. Students study the world-renowned SMP acting method, learning how to build a trusting ensemble and create truthful characterizations with strong emotional technique and physical clarity. Program focus includes voice and movement and culminates in a fully mounted stage production. Added bonuses include a new found sense of self, increased confidence, and a profound appreciation for the arts.
