Class Info


Zip Zap Zing Acting Academy:

Arabian Nights

1st - 5th Grade (6 – 10 years old)

Grab your magic lamp, jump on your magic carpet, and get ready to fly into a whole new world! In this exciting, original adaptation, performers will get a chance to explore the classic tales of Aladdin, Ali Baba, Sinbad and more. Join Princess Scheherazade as she weaves tales of magic and mystery for 1001 nights. Whether it’s their first time on the stage or not, ZZZ’s play production process will build young performers’ skills and techniques in a fun environment that promotes confidence and encourages imagination. As students strive to develop characterizations and build scenes, they will be fine tuning the three major tools of an actor: mind, body, and voice. Line memorization, character development, blocking with stage directions, focal points, working within an ensemble, as well as musical numbers incorporating singing and basic dance choreography will all be explored. Cost includes script & practice CD.

Tales from Arabian Nights

Say, “Open Sesame!” and join us as we explore a whole new world! There are magic lamps to be found and magic carpets to fly as performers rehearse stories of Aladdin, Ali Baba, Sinbad and more. Mini drama kings and queens will be introduced to a variety of age-appropriate theatre games and activities that encourage imagination, build verbal skills, develop motor skills & body awareness, enhance socialization, increase memory and mental focus, as well as introduce basic theatre terms and characterization techniques in a fun and approachable way.

While at this age, the focus is very much on building self-confidence and encouraging imagination, the students will also receive scripts for a mini-play and a portion of each class will be devoted to rehearsal.
