The Actor's House: A Course in Scene Study & Performance

Join us for a welcoming and encouraging course that will tune your craft through scene study.

Join a community of actors who want to share their talent and be supported by one another. Each week there will be a collection of scenes provided. The focus is on film.

Enjoy the wonderful writing from Moonstruck, Micky and Nicky, Thief and The Kids Are All Right, with wild cards like The First Wives Club, Garden State and The Break up!

The sessions are curated, the scenes are designated and there is no preparation required. It is a course of doing and positive feedback only.

Come to play, dive into a character and leave feeling confident and invigorated!
