is an in-person, after-school theatre program where youth will explore the
world of circus arts while building their acting skills. From clowning
fundamentals and physical comedy to exploring juggling, stage make-up, and
costuming. The youth will learn to express themselves through physicality, improv,
and dramatic storytelling. Whether you are tumbling into a new role or spinning
a tale of wonder, this class will help you discover the performer within- while
having a blast! We’ll clown around into a culminating showcase “under the big
top”. </span><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif">CAN Academy
improves academic skills, instills empathy and responsibility, builds
character, and enhances creative thinking. Prepare to step into the spotlight
and bring the circus magic to life!</span><span style="font-family:"Calibri Light",sans-serif"><span></span></span></p>
