From the Director
Our Mission
At kidsActing we provide a supportive, fun environment where young people can be creative, expressive and improve communication skills- traits that improve performance in school and enhance one's life. We feel the process of learning and striving for personal, individual excellence is important in developing self-confidence. Each class is age-appropriate; though the description of a class is the same for all age groups, the level of work changes depending on the age of the class so students are encouraged and challenged. The emphasis within a class varies each semester and the specific work is always different, thus repeating a class is encouraged to achieve a higher level of excellence. And kidsActing is FUN!
Testimonials
Testimonials
"After four years of KidsActing, my daughter auditioned for admission to the prestigious Tisch School of the Arts at NYU in Manhattan. She was in the 15% of applicants accepted. After sitting in on upper and lower level theatre classes there, we came to the conclusion that she had ALREADY received the kind of conservatory training that they offer... she got it at KidsActing! Now she is a Freshman at Wellesley, studying theatre and directing from a literary perspective."
