Acting Academy

Join us for another exhilarating year of acting, improv, workshops, and much more! A place where imaginations can run wild and self-confidence is promoted, Acting Academy is an after-school program that fosters an environment where students are welcome to express themselves while learning about the world of theatre! Acting Academy strives to create a safe space for students to explore and expand their minds in a personal and professional manner while learning skills to use in and outside of the classroom. This program culminates in May with a performance of a junior version of a popular Broadway show. 

Highlights this year include: 

• A role in our spring musical 
• Workshops in dance, improv, makeup, and more
• A chance to see a Broadway show on the MainStage at Proctors
