ACTING CLASSES STARTING BACK AT THE CHARLESTON ACTING STUDIO, the educational arm of Midtown/Sheri Grace Productions
Acting & Creative Drama Classes

These lively and energetic workshops are designed for beginners and experienced actors, focusing on improv, building a character, mastering a monologue, scene work with a partner, and audition techniques. Acting classes meet once each week for 7 weeks (adult classes) or 8 weeks (youth classes).

The final class is a showcase performance on one of our black box stages, presenting  material that has been worked on throughout the course. In some instances, the final class may be held on a day or night other than the regular class day.   Family and friends are cordially invited to attend the showcases!
