Learn to act like a superstar with PETA’s Workshop Weekends 2!
Earlier this year, the Philippine Educational Theater Association (PETA) opened its doors forย aspiring stage performers through their annual Workshop Weekends. Different people, fromย college students to young professionals flocked to the PETA Theater Center to enroll in variousย courses ranging from Theater Arts to the more advanced courses like Basic Acting and Creativeย Musical Theater. Starting on October 11 and ending on December 7, PETA is giving anotherย opportunity for aspiring thespians to further their skill in acting and theater.
PETA is the perfect company to attend workshops because of its amazing history. Founded in 1967 by Cecile-Guidote Alvarez, PETAย continues to develop its breed of cultural leaders as it steps up to the forefront of Philippine culture. PETA has written, translated, adapted, published, and performed more than 400 plays and has facilitated thousands of workshops both locally and internationally.ย Its latest show Rak of Aegis proves that its productions are a class of its own!
No experience in acting? PETA can train you to act like your favorite soap star
For the second batch of Workshop Weekends, PETA is offering additional classes toย accommodate more enrollees ranging from beginners to intermediate aspirants. The coursesย for the Workshop Weekends 2 are: Theater Arts, Basic Acting, Creative Musical Theater I, andย Creative Musical Theater II.
Beginners may take their first step into the theater world with the Theater Arts and Creativeย Musical Theater I courses. These courses do not require prior theater experience. It’s more of an introduction for those who have the passion for theater but havenโt really gottenย to it yet. Theater Arts is more focused on building a background for theater newbies by teachingย them to learn and appreciate the art of theater production and history. It also touches onย group dynamics, visual arts, and creative music. Creative Musical Theaterย 1 provides students the chance to study the principles of composition and organization inย performing for musical theater that is geared towards developing the enrolleesโ basic musicalย theater skills.
PETA also offers advanced courses for aspiring actors who already have experience
For those whoโre looking to take on a challenge, PETA offers two advanced courses in Basicย Acting and Creative Musical Theater II. Basic Acting provides its students the chance to applyย the elements of the arts and composition to give a good performance through theirย body, voice, and imagination in acting while also tackling techniques on improvisation andย text analysis. PETA also opens up Creative Musical Theater 2, a course that focuses onย identifying and learning how to make the most of the enrolleesโ strengths and weaknesses asย a musical performer. Its curriculum centers on the influence of the history and forms of bothย Western and Filipino Musical Theater styles.
Want to act in case Rak of Aegis makes another return? That’s possible because enrollees can act in an original production at the end of the workshops
All PETA workshops make use of the basic integrated theater approach wherein theyย incorporate the five fundamental theater disciplinesโcreative drama, body movement andย dance, creative sound and music, creative writing and visual arts. Not only this, enrollees will beย given the chance to fully experience this approach when they perform in an original productionย to conclude the workshops. Care to act in case Rak goes back?
To enroll, you can just download theย application form found at the PETA Theater website and walk in everyย Tuesdays to Friday at the PETA Theater Center to be interviewed and familiarize yourself with the courseย you wish to enroll in.
