VIRTUAL WORKSHOP

With the musical Matilda as our guide, this virtual workshop gives actors the chance to continue developing their skills in a focused, supportive environment. Actors will train in character development, music, choreography, script analysis, and performance techniques using material from the show. Our goal is to help each student grow in confidence, technique, and presence.

This special workshop is by invitation only and offered to a select group of performers.

Spots are filled first come, first served and enrollment closes once the class reaches capacity.

VIDEO HIGHLIGHT

This short clip is from our previous Making a Musical: Matilda workshop, a favorite among our students. It features longtime KOTA student and actor Suri Marrero, the youngest Young Nala cast in Broadway’s The Lion King and Young Elsa in Frozen, performing as Matilda.

PLEASE NOTE:  THIS IS NOT A PRODUCTION OF MATILDA. 

Students use Matilda materials to build acting, music, and storytelling skills.
