Requirement: Must have completed the initial 9-month Master Class series for new students.
This series is an ongoing Master Class that can be taken multiple times after completing the initial series. As with the first series, this master class continues to develop the talent and skill of the actors and guides them to make the most productive choices in the art and business of acting for stage and screen.
In this ongoing series, students will actively work toward advancing their academic or professional careers through focused goal-setting and hands-on creative development.
Registration is on a first-come, first-served basis for those who have completed the initial 9-month Master Class series. Once the spots have been filled, additional requests will be placed on a waitlist. (Students who have not completed the initial series may audition for the Master Class for new Master Class students.)
TUITION:
Monthly Tuition: $155 will be due on the 1st of each month from September 2026 through April 2027.
Tuition payments are not based on the number of classes in any particular month. The entire course curriculum is divided into equal payments to make it easier on a family budget.
A 5% discount will be given if semester tuition is paid in full at the time of registration.

If a student withdraws any time after September 1st, the balance of the full course tuition will be due at that time.
