  This Workshop has 5 sessions from May 4th - June 1st from 1-3pm.

  Have you gotten your act together?  If you want to improve your performance and go to the next level, consider joining Barb Turino as she returns to teach a third semester with Theatre Guild. These workshops will include a combination and expansion of the most popular subjects from the first and second semesters and new subjects depending on the needs of the participants.

  The classes will cover time and experience tested tools and techniques.  There is something for everyone regardless of acting experience.  New and returning students are welcome.  

  Barb is an actor, director, trainer executive coach and published author.  Her book Getting Your Act Together explores how to use the skills and tools that the actor uses both on stage and on the real stage of everyday live. She believes that we are all onstage everyday with a role to play in the show called life, with an audience who will hopefully give rave reviews and demand encore performances.
