Six sessions in Poughkeepsie culminate in showcase performance

The Actors Showcase Workshop is being offered on Saturdays from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. from Feb. 7 through March 14 at the Baldwin Studio, Universalist Unitarian Fellowship of Poughkeepsie, 67 Randolph Ave.

This workshop will focus on scenes and monologues culminating in a showcase performance for an invited audience of family, friends, theater directors and other guests. Each session is designed with the goal of exploring creative approaches that cultivate skills and instill greater confidence, enabling an actor to grow as an artist. Actors polish performance techniques with individualized training.

The workshop is led by Mirage Theatre Company Artistic Director June Prager. The fee is $180 for six sessions. For more information and to register, visit the company’s site or email [email protected].
