Our 1-Week Kids Explorations in Film/TV Camp explores:

• ensemble building

• foundational elements of storytelling and on-camera techniques
• introduction to The Barrow Group tools
• Creating storytelling elements including: props, costumes, and sets!
• culminates in a showing for friends and family to attend

Through games and exercises, students are introduced to collaborative play and ensemble building skills. Students then build upon these skills as they explore acting and performance techniques by helping to create and share short plays using either a piece of children's literature  or by creating their own characters.

This camp teaches our specific approach to storytelling, and introduces students to the same tools that our adult professional actors work with. We believe that to act is to play and that students learn the most in an atmosphere of relaxed positive reinforcement.

What makes The Barrow Group School different from many other studios in NYC is that all of our teachers have gone through an intensive teacher training program with TBG co-artistic directors Seth Barrish and Lee Brock. So when your child takes a class with us, the teacher has trained for years at The Barrow Group in our specific approach.

Schedule: TBD

Our 1-Week Kids Explorations in Monologues Camp builds upon improvisation and storytelling skills learned in the Explorations in Acting Camp/Class. Students will create their own characters and monologues via a writing prompt from the instructor.

The camp culminates in an open class to share their plays for friends and family.

Prerequisite: Students must have completed either the Kids Explorations in Acting 6-Week Class and/or a 1-Week Kids Acting Camp
