Acting Companies
Pre-Professional Acting Companies
Train Hard. Perform Honestly. Become Exceptional.
Talent is only the beginning. Through our three-tier training companies—Spark, Anvil, and Forge—students ages 7–18 learn to channel energy into craft, instinct into technique, and ambition into action. They’ll tackle everything from Shakespeare to screen acting, stage combat to voiceover, all while developing the confidence to stand, speak, and lead.
Our faculty—trained in top MFA programs—hold students to a high standard, because we believe young people rise to the level they are challenged to meet.
The result? Actors who are not only skilled—but grounded, disciplined, and ready for what’s next, whether that’s college programs, professional work, or life beyond the stage.
Auditions for 2026-2027 companies are April 25th!
