NCT Drama School's Emerging Artist Company Presents:
The Old Man and the Old Moon
Book, Music, & Lyrics by PigPen Theatre Co.
The Old Man has kept his post as the sole caretaker of
the moon for as long as he (or his wife, the Old Woman) can remember. When she
is drawn away by a mysterious melody sparking memories of their shared past,
the Old Man must decide between duty (and routine) and love (and adventure).
Luckily for audiences everywhere, he chooses the latter, and what follows is an
imaginative sea-faring epic, encompassing apocalyptic storms, civil wars,
leviathans of the deep, and cantankerous ghosts, as well as the fiercest
obstacle of all: change.

This rigorous acting class builds on past experiences and current competencies to develop vocal technique, physical commitment, script analysis, and the actor's imagination. These skills are then applied to high-level scene work. Students will truly hone their skills over this 12-Week period as the class is split between working on high-level scene work throughout the semester and in dedicated college-level Master Classes taught by some of the best performing arts facilitators in Nashville. Students then take these newly learned skills and are able to apply them to their character and scene work, in not just this class but beyond.
