PETA’s summer theater course opens this April

MANILA, Philippines—Boring summers are a thing of the past. If you want to stop wasting long hours re-running old DVDs or spending every other day at the mall, then indulge in a fun and artistic theater experience with Philippine Educational Theater Association’s (PETA) Summer Theater Arts Workshop!

The Children’s Theater course allows children (ages 6 to 12) to explore and experience music, movement, visual arts, storytelling, drama improvisation, poetry and short story writing coupled with lots of fun and games. PETA’s creative processes help develop children’s imagination, self-confidence, appreciation of self, others, nature and culture.

Young thespians and aspiring actors can enroll in Teen Theater (ages 13 to 17), Theater Arts (ages 17 and up) and Basic Acting (ages 17 and up) where participants will be introduced to various acting styles as well as study the artistic and technical components of theater production. Specialized workshop courses, such as Creative Dance Theater (ages 17 and up), Creative Musical Theater (ages 17 and up) allow each applicant to explore the use of music, dance and movement as a form of artistic expression in a theater setting.
