I took a course there and was pleasantly surprised about how well everything was organized. The class was bigger than expected with mixed group of participants on different level of preparedness. Our instructor was a joy. Overall, a good place with professional and committed staff.
I decided to take my first in-person acting class at The Theatre Lab, and I'm so glad I did! Our instructor, Nathan Whitmer, was absolutely amazing to work with. He really brought each of us out of our shell and helped us dig into each character's objective and obstacle. It was incredible to see the strides we made in such a short period of time. Because I'm so happy about the experience thus far, I've already signed up for my next class!
An amazing organization and space for the dramatic arts! After week 1, I already see improvement in my son's confidence, articulation, team work, and an appreciation for the stage! We're already including next year's summer camp in our budget.
I took the "Public Speaking the Actor's Way" class in May 2018 and found it to be well worth the price. The text for the course was full of helpful theory on public speaking using acting techniques. These were put into practice in class. Students learned how to "act" -- imagining themselves or the audience in different ways -- to bring out their best "performance." I highly recommend this course.
Theatre Lab has changed my life in ways I never anticipated. I started out with no acting experience 3 1/2 years ago and have taken many classes and acted in a play in Theatre Lab. The teachers are all expert, committed and supportive. I've learned so much about acting, the worlds of theatre, TV, and film, and about myself!
Such a fabulous experience. Whether you're a newcomer to the theatre, or a working actor looking to brush up or expand some specific techniques, The Theatre Lab has classes that can work for you. I've been a part of dozens of productions, from staged readings to full plays and musicals, and every experience has been wonderful. They also offer an Honors Conservatory program for up-and-coming actors to focus and hone their skills.
The Theatre Lab is a great theatre resource for the DC/East Coast region! I loved attending classes, and the instructors were always knowledgeable, accessible, and were all working professionals in the industry. I would highly recommend attending classes here if you're thinking about acting in the DC Area. They're amazing!
