Classes and Workshops are a wonderful way to get involved in Limelight. They are great for beginners who wish to get involved in theater and veterans who wish to hone specific skills. We want to offer a variety of different opportunities to experience and learn about different aspects of theater related to both the performance and production end of the process. Please let us know if there is an aspect of theater that want to learn more about and we will try to create those opportunities for you!
All programming is offered through the Oswegoland Park District. To sign up for any of these classes, please call 630.554.1010 or click here to register online.

Writing One-Acts
Each participant will work closely with the instructor and the other participants to develop his/her own one-act play that will go into the Limelight archive and may be selected for future performance. This course is recommended for anyone interested in building his/her own script ideas for the stage. Skills practice and instruction will include: story analysis, building dramatic structure for the one-act play, creating effective dialogue, establishing tone, and visualizing the story’s finished product on the stage.

Actors in Motion
Worried about having two left feet? Do you want to kick it up in the chorus line, but don’t know where to start? This course is specifically designed to help actors become more adept at using one of their most important tools: their bodies! Actors will learn how to follow choreography, how to do some common dance moves, and how to incorporate character into all movement on stage. All of this helps to improve your physical presence and increase confidence in dance and movement on stage. Please wear comfortable clothes that are easy to move around in, and wear gym shoes or dance shoes.
