The Arts Club’s Actor’s Intensive is a multi-week course for folks ages 25+ that takes a back-to-basics approach to tune up the professional actor’s instrument with voice, movement, and acting training.

Classes take place three days a week (15 hours per week), for 75 hours of instruction over five weeks. The acting training will incorporate voice and body work and examine the decision-making process that goes into crafting a performance. You will also integrate the process back into the product as you work on monologues, both classic and contemporary, to be presented at a final public showcase.
