Werkz Junior
Full of fun-filled learning and drama games galore, Theatrix is perfect for the young thespians who strive to see their name in lights. This play-based drama program will explore common acting styles, show structures and performance techniques in an exciting and interesting way, allowing these budding stars to build their confidence as performers and have a lot of fun in the process. Terms One and Two end with an in-class sharing, with an end-of-year staged production for families to watch what just how much students have achieved.
