Over the coming months, Lakewood Playhouse has a wide range of education programs on offer, covering various theatrical disciplines, for all ages.
Our Spring program sessions are:

This 4 week program will cover the basics of hand to hand combat, rapier fencing, and falling on stage. Students will explore the use of sound in helping build compelling fights, the differences between staging combat on a proscenium stage compared to staging in the round, using the set and stage to full effect, as well as safety and communication with your scene partners-both in the moment and over the run of a show. At the end of the 4 weeks, there will be a skill share and parents, family, and friends are invited to attend.
