PETA’s Workshop Weekends is back!
Because of the stresses that work brings, it’s becoming incredibly
hard for most people to pursue what they truly love. This July, the
Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) is giving students and
young professionals the chance to break free from the work environment
and push through with their dreams of becoming a stage actor at least
during the weekends by bringing back Workshop Weekends. Comprising of a
variety of acting and musical sessions all held at the end of each week,
PETA’s Workshop Weekends will surely provide true theater artists their
fix of the limelight and the stage. Offering a selection of different
workshops, PETA gives way to the varied specialties of aspiring
applicants.
Starting on July 7, the classes that are currently being offered are
Basic Acting for Theater, Theater Arts, and Creative Musical Theater. In
all of its courses, PETA manages to incorporate the fundamentals of
theater such as body movement, music, writing, and drama giving enrolees
the opportunity to obtain the experience and skill of a true thespian.
Basic Acting for Theater provides its students the chance to learn
more about the fundamentals of a good performance which is just perfect
for first-time performers wanting to improve their skill on
improvisation and composition. Theater Arts, on the other hand, is more
focused on building a background for theater newbies teaching them to
learn and appreciate the art of theater production and its history while
also touching upon the subjects of group dynamics, visual arts, and
creative music. Creative Musical Theater provides students the chance to
explore their musical capabilities with voice studies and performances
that encourage the sharpening of their musical composition skills and
instrumental capabilities.
Enrolees of the Workshop Weekends really get the whole theater
experience especially that each course ends with a spectacular
production wherein professionals can unleash the skills and techniques
they have picked up from the courses and become a true stage actor for a
day. Workshop Weekends is an opportunity that should not be missed.
Drama fanatics and newbies who have gotten too busy with work and
studies are more than welcome to get their first taste of the theater
life.
