ACTING DIVISION: Beginning with the basics and progressing through the career level of the Professional Workshop, Action Theatre's acting program emphasizes the development of the individual's technique in a supportive atmosphere. The step-by-step nature of courses assures that individuals who are just beginning are not thrown into a class of fast-moving, intensive scene study or character work. Students are periodically evaluated, and instructors are readily accessible to discuss individual problems and progress. When students have demonstrated professional readiness, the Conservatory takes them into NYC for a scene evening to which managers, agents and casting directors are invited.
