Class Descriptions

Kids Half and Half Camp

Get the best of both worlds! Both camps have been so popular over the years we thought, “Let’s take the best parts from each camp and combine them.” Kind of like peanut butter and chocolate: two very different tastes that complement each other extremely well.

Often young actors are encouraged to learn new skills, and with Kids’ Half and Half Camp not only will they improve their acting skills but they will learn a valuable new skill set for the industry. And for those who love martial arts they get to utilize and demonstrate their skills and put them on camera. Their fight choreography scenes will be taped and viewed in class. They will be educated on acting, safety, and their best camera angles for their scene.

This week-long camp includes:

  • Basic skills for on-camera auditions
  • On set etiquette and terminology
  • Improvisation
  • Scene study
  • Stage combat/fight choreography
  • Taekwondo
  • Board breaking
  • Intro to Meisner Acting Technique

In addition, students will learn the very important skills of self-defense (for real, not acting) in the Personal Safety portion of this camp. Super Educating and Super fun! 

Kids & Teens Acting Class

This class is open to students ages 7+

This class encourages and stimulates children of all experience levels in a fun and safe environment. The class will cover improvisation, Meisner technique, and on-camera work for auditioning and monologues. By learning to express their own uniqueness, kids will develop self-confidence that will stay with them wherever they go.

Adult Playdate

The playdate is open to actors of all skill levels. Ages 13+

Each class starts with fun/warm-up exercises that branch out to Meisner basic foundation work, improvisation, and cold reading skills. And for those who have monologues and/or scenes they want to work on they are welcome to bring them in too. As well as advanced Meisner students bringing in their level of work.

At the end of each class, audition and resume feedback is available on request to students who have upcoming auditions.

Starlight Amphitheater

Come to a place to collaborate and feed your creativity. Hidden on 25 acres of natural forest on top of a stunning mountain the amphitheater is an all-natural haven for the expression of the human soul. Artists of all kinds are welcome. It’s a source of joy whether you are there to perform or simply to watch others. This family built amphitheater is a work in progress. A dream inspired by art, nature, love, and living in the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
