Laugh Out LIVE!  Workshop Series Presents:

Improv & Acting for Kids (8–12)

Whether your child loves being on stage or is just beginning to find their voice, this 13-week after-school program will help them explore and grow through the magical world of acting.

Through engaging theatre games, improvisation, character work, and storytelling, students will discover the joy of performance while building confidence and developing life skills that extend far beyond the stage. Every class is filled with laughter, creativity, and encouragement in a supportive environment where it's safe to take risks, try new things, and simply be themselves.

What They'll Experience

Each week, students will explore the exciting world of acting through:

  • Fun theatre games and improvisation

  • Character creation and storytelling

  • Acting scenes and performance techniques

  • Voice, movement, and stage presence

  • Creative problem solving through play

  • A supportive environment where every child belongs

  • A final showcase for family and friends

Skills They'll Build

Along the way, students naturally strengthen valuable skills they'll carry into school, friendships, and everyday life, including:

  • Problem-solving and thinking on their feet

  • Public speaking and communication

  • Active listening and mindfulness

  • Confidence and self-expression

  • Spontaneity and self-discipline

  • Teamwork and collaboration

  • Spatial and self-awareness

  • Building confidence and managing anxiety

  • Reacting calmly under pressure

And... they'll have an absolute blast doing it!

This Class Is Perfect For Kids Who...

  • Love performing or being creative

  • Are curious about acting, even if they've never tried it before

  • Have vivid imaginations and enjoy storytelling

  • Want to build confidence and express themselves

  • Are looking to make new friends

No previous acting experience is required. Every child is welcome.

Why Acting?

Because imagination is where confidence and creativity come to life!

Acting helps children communicate with confidence, collaborate with others, think creatively, and discover strengths they didn't know they had. As they step into new characters, they often become more comfortable, expressive, and confident as themselves.

The 13-week session culminates in a fun, supportive showcase where students celebrate everything they've learned with family and friends.
