Class Description
Every actor worth their salt has their own way of creating a role. However, many have no technique for auditioning. This class will guide you through the do’s and don’ts. Class will consist of practical knowledge and straightforward information. Local theater directors will come in to critique the auditions. After 50 years of being on both sides of the footlights, John can offer practical experience: the do’s and don’ts of auditioning.

With one of the tallest buildings – and most spectacular views – in town, the Hugh’s View rooftop terrace serves as The Studios’ creative space in the sky. The terrace sits four stories above street level and offers panoramic views of the island. The Kitwald Stage glows in the golden twilight of our sunset performances.
With original seating from its days as a Masonic temple, the Helmerich Theater has been updated to also include floor seating. As a black box theater, the set up is intimate but professional, and sets the stage for concerts and performances that leave guests feeling like they really got to know the performer.
