Developing a theatrical role

A group of students from area high schools participated in a theatre arts workshop organized by Project ADEPT (A Diversified Enrichment Program for the Talented), a Monroe 2-Orleans BOCES program. Working with actor and teacher Heather Standford, the students learned basic improvisation and explored different characterizations using physical energy. Above, Brockport student Jessi St. George (front) and Churchville-Chili student Jessie Lehman participate in an exercise for which they must change their physical appearance and the way in which their bodies move based on conditions described by the teacher.
