Group Performing Arts Classes Available via
Holton's Fine & Performing Arts Adjunct Program
The Arts Adjunct Program offers group classes in performing arts, such as acting, choral music, and musical theatre. Fall 2023 offerings include:
ACTivate Drama Class - Holton Students in Grades 5 to 6
with Kate Magill Robinson and Mark Robinson
Holton-Arms School students only
Adventure and mystery, drama and comedy, legends and folk tales! Great storytelling has existed for thousands of years, and while the stories have evolved over time, the ingredients that make up good stories have remained constant. This class will explore storytelling through improvisation, theater games, and an original script which will allow the student actors to explore and bring to life a colorful cast of characters. The class will conclude with a final INFOrmance where students can wow families and friends with the dramatic and storytelling skills they have developed over the semester. Please come dressed to play (modesty shorts or tights under skirts, shoes that stay on your feet) and bring your imagination!
Classes meet Thursdays from 3:30 to 5 p.m. in the Beebe Black Box Theater on these dates:
September 21, 28
October 5, 12, 19, 26

At the end of the semester, an INFOrmance will be held where parents will have the opportunity to enjoy what the students have learned and rehearsed.
