GENESIS ARTS TRAINING PROGRAM

The on-stage training program of Brooklyn’s Classical Theater returns for a summer session. Now at TWO LOCATIONS in Brooklyn!

“I encourage my students to set free who they are by releasing self-consciousness and self-judgment. Students have told me that our classes help them not only with their acting careers,but with physical fitness, public speaking, goal-setting, conflict resolution, focus, productivity, and self-esteem. I dare them to be their best … and have fun doing it!”

- John Stillwaggon, instructor
