A Conversation with Pioneer Stage Artists | 18th & 19th June

AVANT THEATRE'S 4G WORKSHOP

Rarely do we get opportunities to understand why and what makes these Pioneer Stage Actors to keep pursuing Stage Acting despite their various well-known restrictions. Bones creak. Memories fail. Words slur. Yet, their passion never fades.

They all have one thing in common: “To share the knowledge we have before we walk into the sunset!”

This ever-giving attitude and will to stretch themselves for the craft they love, is admirable and something that we feel must be celebrated. Taking over from last year’s TLC Tamil Youth Festival, we bring you a workshop Face to Face with some of the finest stage actors to have adorned the Singapore stage! You will have them share their experiences firsthand and talk about their working mechanics in Avant Theatre’s 4G in which they are involved in.

Meet Mdm Sithra, Mdm Muthuletchmi, Mr Logan, Mr Ahamed Ali Khan, and Mr Lingam in the acting workshop facilitated by Mr G Selva this June.

Limited Seats Only. So rush and book your places now!

Speech & Drama for Students

Children attend these classes once a week and are involved in a series of fun-filled learning activities which aim to develop ongoing confidence, self-esteem and skill in verbal communication. Our developmental drama program provides young children with unique opportunities to develop clear speech, fluent delivery and pleasing social skills. Children who mix well with others find it easier to make friends and adjust to new situations. They find school an enjoyable adventure! Our confidence building program helps to give them the skills to be participants in all aspects of their lives, able to ask questions, seek answers and share information with others.
