Heather attended the University of Georgia as a Theatre Major. Ms. Thurston is also the Lighting Designer for Theatre Macon and recently worked professionally as Scenic Painter for the Highlands Playhouse in Highlands, North Carolina. Ms. Thurston will be at Clisby for six weeks, beginning in January. Beginning with improvisational techniques, classes will include such lessons as vocal exercises, sensory awareness, and scene-study work. Such authors as Dr. Suess, Lewis Carroll, T.S. Eliot and William Shakespeare will be introduced in the classroom for study and performace use.
Adults attending the class get a taste of similar lessons taught to the children.
