Cognitive Growth

The opportunities for cognitive growth in London theatre are many. Just the amount of reading necessary for rehearsing a play makes a good case for that statement! But it doesn't stop there. Students must memorize their lines. To do this they must first organize their time in order to meet the deadlines for line memorization and then must keep practicing over and over to make the words their own

Concentration Skills

Concentration skills also get a workout as your actor has to learn to do several things at once onstage. He will have to have his lines flawlessly in his head while remembering where and why he supposed to be moving across the boards. He will also have to be on his toes because this is live London theatre being played by live human beings, and human beings make mistakes! Someone could drop a line.

Communication Skills

Communication skills will grow as he finds himself poised to talk with other actors onstage and discovers that he must turn and look at that other person in order for the line to ring true. And listening is often touted as the most important skill an actor can have. He must listen to the director, to the other actors and the central action onstage.

Improves the Skills of Observation

Listening even comes into play when the actor is offstage as he must listen for his cue to go back on! As his listening improves his skills of observation are being honed. And when he says his lines onstage, your kid will be encouraged to project his voice in a clear manner and to enunciate well so that what he is saying can be better understood by the audience, thereby increasing his verbal articulation skills.
