Acting Classes (Fall 2024)

Improve your acting skills while performing in a play!

Get personalized training to kick your skills into high gear, while making new friends in your small ensemble of dedicated actors.  Students will learn acting, improv, and physical theatre technique during rehearsals.

This performance class mounts a play using a tight ensemble of actors. The play will be professionally directed and fully produced — with custom-designed costumes, set, props, sound score, and lighting. The show will be performed in our Studio at Tysons Corner Center for your friends and family — as well as the public!

• No Audition!

• Build & Refine Acting Skills

• Expand Imagination & Friendships

Traveling Players classes offer expert training in acting, character creation, physical comedy, stage combat, improvisation, and text analysis. We also value the spirit of the ensemble. Our ensemble- and team-building activities create a strong, supportive class — and friendships that can last a lifetime!

Harness the popular role-playing game D&D to form a new kind of play ensemble: the Adventuring Improv Party!  Instead of retelling an already-existing story, we customize each adventure for maximum creativity and theatrical challenge! 

Actors will create bold characters, overcome obstacles, and make strategic and innovative choices on the spot as they use long-form improvisation as a storytelling tool. 

Each class will feed into the next, in an ongoing original story that encourages actors to work together both as characters and as collaborators designing an expansive story — their own epic adventure!
