Accents Introductory Workshop
With instructor Adam Fristoe
August 31st
**This workshop is a prerequisite for the Thursday Accents Ongoing class at 11am.
Learn the skills you need to create authentic regional and foreign accents. We will play with sound, get intimately familiar with how we produce and shape sound, and learn the basics of several staple accents that commonly come up in auditions.

Traditional Meisner 3-Month Intensive
With instructors Erin Burns & Dustin Lewis
Next Round Starts September 5th
The Intensive of ALL Intensives!
(Our 6 month program in 3 months with 2 instructors!)
The definition of Acting is “living truthfully under imaginary circumstances.” In order to do this we must learn to strip away the confines that society has put on us and respond truthfully in every moment. Meisner has developed improvisational exercises that bring the actor back to the beginning where they learn to know themselves and can act in a place where no barriers exist. They will come away from this training with the ability to have a truthful experience with another actor.
Practical Aesthetics for the Professional Actor
With instructor Sherrie Peterson
Next Round Starts September 8th
While Practical Aesthetics technique is a text analysis and acting technique for any level actor, it is only for the serious one. You have heard that “Those who fail to plan are those who plan to fail.”…well, translated for the actor, that means “DO YOUR PREP WORK!” Why? So that you actually can live truthfully in the moment and stay out of your head. This can only happen when you have come to the audition, set, or stage confident in your preparation as a professional. In this course, you will learn how to tell the story, not just deliver the lines.
