Something for everyone.
"10-part" Acting
Kids - Wednesdays 6pm - 7pm
Adults - Weds 7:30 - 8:30
This should really be called "5 parts" because we work for 10 weeks but we learn 5 contrasting parts over those 10 weeks. This is an on-going class that will be best for actors who really want to give it a shot! It will challenge actors to balance multiple characters at a time, to work with scene partners, and to dive deeper into a character analysis. This class ends with a mock audition/ showcase for a panel of special guests.
Kids ages 6 - 13
(most are 11 years)
Adult ages 14 and up
(most are 30 years)

Orphaned Actors Club
Thursdays 6pm - 7pm
Orphaned Actors Club is for any actor who is unrepresented and looking for an agent to take them under their wing. The strike is over! It’s time to dive in and find that agent! But it can be a scary step. Many actors feel alone and overwhelmed in the process of submitting to agencies. This can cause them to push it off or second guess their actions. This program exists as support for all of those actors until they land that agent! We will hold each other accountable, offer guidance and advice, and press that “submit” button all together!
