SPRING CLASSES NOW AVAILABLE

We’ve all gotta start somewhere! This class focuses on the building blocks, from building on-stage confidence to rudimentary acting practices. It is designed for anyone who is interested in any aspect of performance, from stage acting to stand-up comedy to TikTok shorts and videos. Being confident in your own body in front of others can also help improve your skills in public speaking, business presentations, and social interactions. We recommend this class for anyone!

LEVEL 1

Thursdays, 6pm-9pm from April 24th to May 29th, 2025

Let’s get performing! Students go through a series of exercises focused on improving their ability to command the space and bring elements of themselves into their work on stage. This class touches all elements of performing, including ensemble building, voice, movement, and script analysis. The class will help get students feeling comfortable performing around others, and culminates in a scene-night in front of a live audience on the last day of class.

LEVEL 2

COMING IN FALL!

**Level 1 is a prerequisite for this class

Students apply what they’ve learned from Basics of Performing Level 1 or equivalent acting classes to go build the process of going from script to stage. Students will be given scenes, and will primarily focus on script analysis, character building, and improv exercises to refine their process of bringing characters to life. This class will also culminate in a scene-night, where students perform their scenes in front of a live audience.
