Happy New Year! Like many of my friends, family, and co-workers, I decide upon a few New Year’s resolutions for myself each year. One of my resolutions for 2011 is to become a better cook. Some friends have resolved to eat healthier food and get more sleep. Candice, the other fellow at the School of Theatre, has decided to try something new every month in the year 2011. This month, she got her hair cut shorter than she’s ever had it before! If Candice’s resolution sounds familiar, then why not learn something novel and fun at the Berkeley Rep School of Theatre?

This Sunday, January 9 from 1-3pm, we are offering a FREE (yes, free!) workshop for youth, teens, adults, and families. Our Sunday Sampler will give everyone a taste of the exciting classes we have in store for our winter session, which begins next week. There are new experiences to be had by everyone: youth can pretend to be superheroes, teenagers can learn stage combat, and adults can explore the world of acting.   

Who knows, maybe you or a loved one will discover a love for theatre and for engaging creativity. The New Year is an occasion for trying new things and becoming a better you; why not do so by surprising yourself at the School of Theatre? And, in the meantime, there are a few recipes I need to try out…
