Actor Training
Actor training courses are held at the theater several times a year in 8-week periods. Interested actors should mail or drop off a headshot, resume, and cover letter describing why they are interested in training with the gang. The cover letter should talk about what shows the applicant has seen at the theater and what aspects of the ensemble attracted the applicant to consider training.

Famous quotes containing the words actor and/or training:
“An actor must communicate his author’s given message—comedy, tragedy, serio- comedy; then comes his unique moment, as he is confronted by the looked-for, yet at times unexpected, reaction of the audience. This split second is his; he is in command of his medium; the effect vanishes into thin air; but that moment has a power all its own and, like power in any form, is stimulating and alluring.”
—Eleanor Robson Belmont (1878–1979)
“... the time will come when no servant will be hired without a diploma from some training school, and a girl will as much expect to fit herself for house-maid or cook, as for dressmaker or any trade.”
—Lydia Hoyt Farmer (1842–1903)
