Description

Please note that registering for this class does not guarantee a spot in one of our current shows.

I’m so excited to be directing CYT‘s staged reading of A Little Princess this fall. This story is about the power of kindness and it is filled with so many colorful characters. Staged readings are a great opportunity for students to focus on their acting skills and build on stage confidence. Students with competent reading comprehension skills and performance experience are encouraged to sign up. This class will focus on working together as an ensemble with scripts, light costuming and minimal tech, production elements. 

Save the date!
This class will present a small piece in our all class showcase on Wednesday, November 4 and have a full performance on Monday, November 9

Teacher:


Brittney Mignano

I am so excited to share my love of the performing arts with the CYT community. My greatest passions have always been my work with children and my work in theater. I've been a nanny for over 20 years, taught at local preschools, worked as a homeschool teacher, led Shakespeare camps, founded improv clubs and performed with a variety of theater companies in Norther CA. Past roles of mine include: Little Red Riding Hood - Into the Woods, Marta-Company, Sara Jane Moore - Assassins, Julia -1984, Wendy - Peter Pan and Juliet - Romeo and Juliet. I'm a California native and received my degree in acting for the stage from the American Academy of Dramatic Art in New York. Off stage I enjoy gardening, baking, volunteering, camping and spending time with my wonderful nephews. My main focus is to continue to support diversity and accessibility in the performing arts community.
