Welcome to A.C.T., the Academy at Civic Theatre! Through our many offerings here at the theatre and throughout the community via our outreach programs, our goal is simple: to develop and strengthen core skills in our students that go well beyond the stage.
Eng aging!
Our A.C.T. programs not only help build selfconfidence in our students, but they engage and strengthen listening, communication, and creative problem-solving skills. These are core stage skills that go well beyond the stage. They help students to think on their feet, to take creative risks, to collaborate more effectively, and so much more!
FUN!
Whether you are new to the theatre, a seasoned stage veteran, or somewhere in between, there is an A.C.T. program for you – no matter what age you are! And if you’re not sure what it is, I’d love to help you figure it out. You can always contact me if you have any questions about our wide variety of class offerings for kids and adults. Our A.C.T. programs have provided a fun, creative learning environment for thousands of students over the years. I sincerely hope you can join in the fun. All our class registrations are available 24/7 online!
