The Players

This fall, the Players will meet weekly on Wednesdays from 4:30-6:00 pm, beginning on September 7th. This will continue weekly until “production week” preceding the first weekend of performances on December 9th and 10th. There will be a second weekend of performances on December 16th and 17th! Lumina’s youngest actors begin their exciting theatre experience as Players. They work with speech creatively, learn to develop basic characters, and practice the fundamentals of acting. Actors develop their verbal fluency in classic theatre using the techniques developed by Rudolph Steiner, and are given instruction in verbal and physical theatre styles and techniques. Players rehearse weekly with their age group, attend occasional weekend rehearsals with the Classics and Guild, and perform in the mainstage production as a cohesive, multi-age cast. All Players have speaking roles in the production and are expected to memorize and practice lines and execute basic stage directions.
