Classes and Workshops

Performing Arts Society of Acadiana (PASA) works whenever possible to extend the impact of the artists who visit our community as performers by hosting master classes, public classes and workshops with our visiting artists, or in preparation for their residencies in south Louisiana.

Often working in association with local experts and/or schools, PASA provides local students and artists with extraordinary close contact with visiting performing artists of the highest levels of artistic achievement.



Class/Workshop Activity

Classes and workshops scheduled in the current PASA season include:

Master Class
Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives: Poetry-Drama-Dialogue
11.09.11 5:00-6:30pm
U.L.'s Burke Hall


This free, exciting acting workshop will include exercises with masks, discovering emotions and much more all focused on the themes of Homecoming/Return of the Warrior. The program scholar will show and explore the connections between the ancient Greeks and today and will lead a discussion on these themes. Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives is a major national program that is taking place in 100 cultural institutions across America with a mission to inspire people to come together to read, see and think about classical literature and how it continues to influence and invigorate American cultural life. Find more information at: www.ancientgreeksmodernlives.org Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives: Poetry and Drama Dialogue has been made possible by a major grant from The National Endowment for the Humanities; great ideas brought to life.
Participants should wear comfortable, loose clothing and be prepared for basic movement. There is no cost of attendance, but space is limited. Call PASA at 237-2787 for more information. Ancient Greeks/Modern Lives is funded by the National Endowment for the Humanities and Aquila Theatre.
