We
are very excited to make a special offer to up to
6 dynamic actors ranging from 16-18 years old!
Because we believe the Michael Chekhov Technique is wonderfully freeing
and inspiring, we are eager for young actors to experience Chekhov
during their formative stages. Want to know what others think
of this program?

At less than $8/hr, this is a rare opportunity for young actors to
learn indepth from world renown master teachers.
This program is rigorous and requires deeply committed and passionate
participants. The majority of our participants include
theatre arts faculty and professional actors and acting teachers, some
of whom are training to teach this amazing technique. Our
hope is that by offering partial scholarships to a select group of
young actors, that the entire ensemble will benefit from the
interaction of the variety of ages and stages of development.
Rather than make the
application into a competition, we are simply offering the $300
scholarship to the first 6 youth artists to submit a complete
registration. The full fee for the 48 hour intensive is $675, and will
remain available after the 6 scholarship participants are enrolled.
However, those first 6 applicants will save $300, paying only $375.
I know that many of our very talented youth are in plays during this
workshop. If this is the case for you, consider that you will
likely be able to attend the full day time program which is from 9-5:45
and several of the evening seminars. the faculty may arrange a separate
session to makeup for missed seminars due to performance commitments.
