The Actors Gym
Monologues, scene study and production are all part of this dynamic course. The course is designed to help the new actor select, rehearse and perform a monologue; or assist the seasoned actor with fine tuning a piece. At the end of the course, friends and family are invited to the final in-house showcase.
