Rogue Pack Theatre Collective empowers youth to succeed by sharing their stories.

Students receive mentorship in all aspects of the theatrical process. From conception to performance, students experience hands-on training from working theatre professionals.

Currently, there is no theatre company in Sellwood-Moreland developing classes for youth. We're thrilled to be able to fill that niche in the community. Our new home at Sellwood Community House is located on Spokane Street, in the heart of Sellwood.

All classes culminate with a live performance for friends and family.

Clowing and Physical Comedy

Wednesday 4pm - 5:30pm

10-14

Clowning and Physical Comedy: We will explore multiple clown characters through games and physical comedy exercises. Each student will develop their own unique clown character. Together we will observe and learn current and traditional physical theater practices and stage combat skills like falls, bonks and safely slamming into walls with no physical repercussions! We will develop individual and group composition pieces to perform for an invited audience at the culmination of the class. Come play with us and discover your inner clown!
