This class is designed for adults who want to give acting a try, or revisit the basics in order to improve their technique! Students will participate in lively theatre games and exercises designed to free up the voice and body, stimulate creativity, promote self-confidence, and teach the building blocks of acting.

This is an introduction to the acting technique pioneered by Sanford Meisner. This course is meant to acquaint the student with preliminary Meisner training techniques that will impart a truthful immediacy to acting work.  Students will go through a number of Meisner exercises, leading to monologue and scene work. The emphasis is on acting in the moment, playing off one's partner, and trusting your impulses! You should come out of this course with a new perspective on acting technique, and less stage fright! 

This class is perfect for adults who love to sing and want to learn how to read music confidently—no experience required. In a relaxed, supportive, and low-pressure environment, you'll develop the foundational skills of sight reading: recognizing notes, rhythms, and melodic patterns so you can sing directly from sheet music without needing to hear it first.  Through guided exercises, group singing, and ear training techniques, you’ll build your musical literacy step by step—at a pace that’s comfortable and encouraging.

Whether you’re singing in a choir, exploring a new hobby, or returning to music after years away, this class will help you find your voice and read music with ease.
