KLPAC Theatre 4 Young People Classes

The other day during Joe's class, we were introduced to the KLPAC's new Director of Residence, Chris Ling. I really love what KLPAC is doing now to really try and bring about younger people into the performing arts and to nurture them to express themselves through the art. He doesn't look as scary as he does in that picture :P and he's a real nice guy.


The prices are also not too terrible. The Actor's Toolkit will be something like what Joe Hasham would teach in his Acting for Beginners Class, which is a 10 week course and costs RM600. It's worth it, if you are keen on learning.


The Academy @ KLPac presents
Theatre For Young People (T4YP)
Three Courses Taught by Chris Ling
KLPac's new Director in-Residence will be conducting three Theatre For Young People (T4YP) courses specially tailored for young people. Trained in Drama and Theatre Arts at Middlesex University, London and with the National Youth Theatre of Great Britain, Chris Ling is most well-known for his work with Rep16:21, the young people's theatre programme of Rep21 Theatre Company.
These three T4YP courses have been specially put together for young people between the ages of 16 to 25.

This intensive, one-month course provides fundamental concepts and techniques of performing for young people.

What leads to that triumph of the human spirit we call creativity? The psychology of creative self-expression will be explored by understanding the processes of inner passions and conflicts on self-expression. Express your innate creativity and artistry through the channels of drama, dance, music, fine art, photography
– just to name a few.

Participants will also get to participate in the first installment of T4YP's yearly workshop performance series - “The 100-words Project”.

It doesn't get any more live than this! Interactive theatre blurs the line between actor and audience by involving everyone in action-based, "theatre of life" events. Explore together with us this powerful, hybrid art form merges the concepts such as: role play, improvised theatre, & interactive simulation which ultimately creates theatre's version of “virtual reality”.

This two-month course culminates in a workshop performance which will literally take Interactive Theatre into people's public and private spaces throughout the month of October. Please note that attendance is compulsory for all classes, intensives and workshop performances and punctuality is mandatory.

Course Fee: RM500 per participant
