    West Milford Parks and Recreation will again be sponsoring an acting program for children 6 to 8 and 9 to 12 years of age this fall. This program is being directed by Erika Crocco, who has extensive experience in children’s drama and theater. This program is designed to help the participant grow as a performer as well as an individual. It will introduce participants to the theater by teaching them through storytelling and games how to develop a character for performing. It will help the child learn the basics of the theater, to develop a character, make the character grow, and even touch upon basic projection exercises which will help the child in all areas of life. The program is eight weeks in length and is being offered on Mondays, beginning April 3 and continuing through June 5 (No class April 10 and May 29). ). 6 to 8 year-olds will meet from 4 - 5 pm and 9 to 12 year olds will meet from 5 - 6 pm.
