  • French Theatre Summer Camps

  • Jul 5, 2015 to Jul 31, 2015
  • Location: Brooklyn and Manhattan
  • Description:

    L’Atelier Théâtre propose des cours aux amateurs de théâtre français de New York.

    Les élèves y apprennent à prendre la parole en public, à s’exprimer avec passion. Ils y découvrent le plaisir de la langue à travers le jeu. Les élèves bilingues y trouvent en particulier un moyen d’améliorer ou de perfectionner leur maîtrise du français en empruntant un chemin d’accès ludique à la langue. Pour les adultes, les cours de l’Atelier sont l’occasion de se détendre, de s’amuser et de travailler sur le répertoire français. Nous montons des spectacles en fin de cycle qui sont l’occasion de partager le travail accompli sur l’année ou sur la session.

    Cet été, nous proposons des ateliers intensifs au mois de juillet pour enfants, ados et adultes. Nous proposons des jeux, et activités théâtrales et travaillons sur des scènes du répertoire et de comedia dell’arte. Les élèves présentent les scènes en fin de cycle.

    The Language and Laughter Studio is pleased to announce we will be continuing with another summer of French language fun, arts, songs, and games in July and August of 2015! Families and children all around Brooklyn love summer camp at LLS because of the interactive and hands-on French language learning activities that happen in a supportive and nurturing child-centered environment.

    We have a team of teachers who are currently preparing an academically enriching French program that balances creative and imaginative explorations with structured French learning. Younger children learn the language through engrossing imaginative play, humorous movement games, and original and art creations. New to French? Your child is welcome here as well as our teachers create a curriculum that is joyful and interesting for children at every level.

    “Intelligent, heartfelt and deeply satisfying! You may go into Queen to Play looking forward to seeing Kevin Kline acting in French, but when you come out you will have Sandrine Bonnaire on your mind....

    QUEEN TO PLAY (Joueuse)
    By Caroline Bottaro
    with Sandrine Bonnaire, Kevin Kline
    2009 | Drama | UR | 1h37 | France | Zeitgeist Films

    The lovely, repressed and quietly intelligent chambermaid Hélène comes upon a couple engaging in an intense chess match, and discovers she has a knack for the game. This obsession–much to the chagrin of her family– leads her to seek the clandestine tutelage of a reclusive American doctor–a liaison that radically transforms both of their lackluster lives.

    Based on Bertina Henrichs' acclaimed novel La Joueuse d'échec (The Chess Player).

    Presented in partnership with the Collectivité Territoriale de Corse, INSTITUT
