Our Performance Style
We are amateur actors, but we read with passion! We create sets with sound and lighting that enable us to perform live and act with realism. BYO costumes and props!
We read the scripts, but forget we have 'em. A very small audience is welcome by invitation of the cast only. We expect you to read through the script and be familiar with your character and actions. Practice any unusual pronunciations, dramatic monologues, or foreign phrases. If you are new to us, an audition shall be arranged.
