The Actor's Dojo

An Actor's Training Forum to develop and deepen your work to the next level

Each month we have rotating warmups, improv and Techniques from Meisner to Method with cold readings, scenes and monologues after.

Feel free to bring in whatever you’d like to work on - whether that's a brand new piece you’re trying out for the first time or a well rehearsed piece you’re polishing up for an audition or for fun.

Bring something in once or several times, rehearsed or cold or just sit and watch, whatever you need as an actor - monologues, scenes, stand up, poetry, Shakespeare, original scripts, etc are all welcomed.

Each workshop we do:

Warmups 15-20min

Improv 30-45min

Technique 15-30min

Cold readings

Monologues & Scenes 1-2hrs

Feel free to bring in a monologue or scene, pick up something in class to try out on the spot or just sit and watch. All feedback is optional and adjusted to each personal's level.

Beginner to Professional will feel welcomed and honed at their own level.

This is a place to try out new things, brush up on technique, strengthen your acting skills, imagination and confidence as an actor - to develop and deepen your work to the next level.

For actors who want to be on their feet, working their craft, sharpening their skills, and performing regularly in-between gigs, auditions and classes
