MCT hosts free youth acting workshops

WALLA WALLA—The Missoula Children’s Theatre (MCT) will offer two free workshops at The Little Theatre of Walla Walla on June 25 and 26.

First up is an Acting Workshop on Tuesday, Wednesday 26 from 2:45pm to 3:30pm. Participants will learn some basic tools of an actor's trade: observation, memorization, concentration, and imagination are presented and explored in an entertaining manner. Students participate in fun exercises, learning how to apply the tools to both performance and everyday life.

Next is an Improvisation Workshop on Thursday, June 27 from 2:45pm to 3:30pm. Participation & teamwork are emphasized as the students learn to act without a script. This workshop is geared to all skill levels, from beginners to experienced performers.

Both workshops are offered to any youth in grades 3 through 12 on a first come, first served basis. Signups are at www.ltww.org. Participants are advised to arrive 10 minutes early.
