CORES

Our Cores encapsulate every method and angle to create a strong foundation as an actor. While students are able to perform in a professional production - the primary focus is on collegiate/professional level training, individualized mentorship, and a path towards success in their pre-professional journey. Led by actors who have experienced Broadway, National Tours, and Regional Theaters, our educators know how to cultivate a professional journey from Pitt to NYC / LA.

GOALS:

  • Learn foundational technique that will give you confidence in all of your auditions, rehearsals, and productions

  • Create a more individualized package; finding material that fits you, your voice, and a grounded process that develops and shows off what makes you special

  • Become a leading Actor in your field; ready for any college or professional process
