![]() Theater Class Information |
The Lex-Ham Community Theater offers classes for both children and adults on a variety of aspects of theater for both the beginner and the more advanced actor. The classes are offered in conjunction with the St. Paul Community Education and St. Paul Parks & Rec offices. For the St. Paul Community Education classes call 651-325-2672 to register for classes for children and 651-293-8811 to register for adult classes. If you're an experienced actor, don't let the terms "Beginner" or "Beginning" in the title scare you away. The instructors will adjust the course material to the experience level of the students.
The next session will start in June 2010 with the following classes and instructors:
Acting: Shakespeare’s Comedy for Absolute
Beginners

experience. Basic voice and movement
will be taught. Students will get a
feel for and play scenes from popular

think!
