ALISON KALMUS 
THEATER (AKT)
ACADEMY 
SUMMER 
WORKSHOPS 
BEGIN JULY 11 


For the first time in eight years,
Alison Kalmus Theater (AKT)
Academy will be conducting summerworkshops for young actors at SierraMadre Playhouse. Her workshopshad previously been conducted atthe Playhouse from 2000 to 2008. 

This year, sessions will take 
place from July 11- July 22; July 25August 
5; and August 8- August 19.

Morning workshops will be 
for children in elementary school 
grades. The workshop is called Mr.
Shakespeare’s Poetry Garden and runsfrom 9 a.m. to Noon. What? Shakespearefor young children? Ms. Kalmus 
explains: “Think about it. Shakespeare’slanguage is beautiful and quite musical.
And young children respond to it withenthusiasm. They like the meter, andrhyme. And they love learning newwords. At last count, Mr. Shakespearewas credited with inventing over 2,000new words for the English Language.
Any six or seven year old child whocan recite a sonnet or a soliloquy fromShakespeare and understand it whilereciting is better prepared to excel in thelanguage arts of reading and writing.”

Activities include making 
Shakespeare FUN through 
rehearsal, performance, crafts 
and study of Shakespeare’s world.
The workshop culminates in a 
Friends And Family presentation. 

Afternoon workshops, for older 
youngsters and teens, will focus on TheMagic of Musical Theatre. This one runsfrom 1 p.m. to 5 p.m. Why musicals?
Ms. Kalmus responds, “Musical theateris where the theater thrives today. It’susually a child’s first theater attendanceexperience - what they know and sharewith each other, family and school,
and it’s what many of them want to try…. It’s especially important for youngsingers to develop sound and safe vocaltechniques. There is a real danger thatchildren listening favorite recordingartists will attempt to sing along,
mimicking the adult singer withoutrealizing they could damage their voicespermanently. I have sadly witnessed thecarelessness and ignorance with whichyoung voices are dangerously pushed .”

This workshop includes scene, 
song and movement study through 
interpretation of lyric, character 
analysis.
