Exploring Virtual Theatre Courses: What to Expect

When you jump into a virtual theatre class, it helps to know what kind of fun and learning you’re about to dive into. Most courses include things like:

🎤 Warm-Ups: Think voice work, breath control, and a little movement to wake up your body and get your brain in “actor mode.”

I love starting with a good warm-up as it connects the voice, body and breath, but it also sets the tone - we are here to theatre!

🎭 Acting Techniques: You might explore styles like Stanislavski, Meisner, or Method Acting—basically all the tools that help you create rich, honest characters. I love sharing some of these methods through play and fun games so the performers don't even know what they are learning.

🎬 Scene Work: Time to play! You’ll work on monologues or scenes to put everything you’re learning into action. Depending on the group and age sometimes we even just work on one line - how it can be said many different was depending on the character, the acting partner or the emotion.

🤣 Improv: Creative, spontaneous exercises that keep you on your toes and encourage your imagination. We love our improv games and have so much playing around.

⭐ Feedback Sessions: Supportive, constructive notes from instructors and classmates so you can grow and feel more confident.

Lots of classes also throw in video assignments, live workshops, and Q&A time so you can connect, ask questions, and really make the most of your training.

How to Maximize Your Learning Experience

To get the most out of your virtual theatre classes, here are a few easy (and actually fun!) tips:

1) Create Your Space: Set up a little corner that feels good—quiet, comfy, and distraction-free. Your own mini stage at home! Test your mic and speaker so you know everything works.

2) Stay Consistent: Pick a time that works and stick with it. A little routine goes a long way in building those skills.

3) Jump In: Ask questions, join the discussions, and play along with your classmates. The more you engage, the more you grow. I always suggest for performers to "try" something before they say no.

4) Record Yourself: It might feel weird at first, but watching yourself back is magic for spotting what’s working and what to tweak.

5) Use Your Skills: Try out a local theatre group, join an online performance, or just play around with scenes at home—real-life practice makes everything click.

Follow these simple steps, and you’ll be amazed at how quickly your virtual learning turns into real, awesome progress.

Finding the Right Online Theatre Classes for You

2) Who’s Teaching: Look for instructors who really know their stuff and have solid theatre experience. The right teacher makes all the difference.

3) Class Size: Smaller groups usually mean more attention, more feedback, and way more opportunities to shine.
