Theatre Academy: Actor Training
PROFESSIONAL ACTOR TRAINING PROGRAM
The Theatre Academy Actor Training Program in Hollywood provides intensive training in all skills and techniques an actor needs.
Why choose the Theatre Academy?
- FOCUS: All required classes pertain to theatre and acting.
- PRACTICUM: In addition to the foundation of classical theatrical training, the Academy regularly collaborates with the Cinema/TV department, providing practical experiences to develop the skills needed for film and television acting,
