THIS IS AN AUDITION-ONLY CLASS WHICH IS NOW CLOSED & FULL.

This class will explore acting techniques used in musical theater. The students will learn Stanislavski based techniques to help build believable characters, as well as song specific techniques like how to 'fill the air', what it means to be 'compelled to sing', and how to interact with their imaginary scene partner. After working through a solo song in the fall, students will apply the acting techniques to a production of Big Fish: Small Cast Edition.

The cost for Advanced Acting Academy is $285 per session ($235 class tuition, plus an additional $50 production fee per session or performance rights, facility, sets, props and artistic team).
