This advanced scene study course with Education Director Tracie Lane Thomason will deepen the craft for participants and develop independent artists by encouraging each actor to codify their individual approach to the work. Actors will be challenged to reach for their outer limits as they continue to explore an array of techniques rooted in imaginative prowess and discover truth in size in material from classical and contemporary plays. By invitation or audition only. Contact education@alleyway.com for details.

I was a bit hesitant about zoom classes but Josie's classes were done with such skill and precision in her lessons and format. We got so much accomplished in so little time! I'm such a fan of your school and can't wait to take more classes! Thank you soooooooo much!
