Our programs focus on building skills for creative participation in the theatre. Training in acting, voice and movement prepares performers for production. Visual arts training in set and costume design as well as technical training in sound and lighting design bring together the many talents necessary in the theatre.
Our instructors have years of experience in education, local community and professional theatre. From beginning to advanced level study, we have fun exploring creativity as well as preparing those who are seeking professional careers. Year round training programs include after school and weekend acting classes for ages 6 years old to adult, daily classes for homeschooling families, private voice lessons and coaching for auditions.
Auditions for seasonal productions are open to the public with additional workshop productions based on student writing, design and performance.
