Our Conservatory is designed to give serious actors the tools they need to start a career in theatre, film and television.  This program is constructed to enhance all elements of the actor’s instrument and craft.  Different disciplines are included to enable the actor to develop artistically and to grow as an individual, including body work, on-camera audition skills, Shakespeare, and improvisation amongst others.  Though the teachers have different backgrounds, they have in common the commitment and passion to help actors develop an acting method of their own and construct a life in the American Theatre - a life that will include the legitimate stage, film and television.  Instruction includes classes focusing on artistic growth; as well as lessons and strategies to help students learn how to navigate the business of acting.  The year culminates with a full theatrical production and industry showcase.
