Then this course is right for you!

Have you ever had an interest in acting? Do you love movies, plays, and/or Estelle Getty? If so, this class is for you!

Unlike many acting courses offered throughout Los Angeles, Lifebook offers a low-stress, flexible approach to the craft where students may come in, have fun, improve, and return to their regular week–as opposed to being held responsible for outside preparation, which is encouraged, but not required!

This class is geared toward people (from ages 18 to 108 years old!) that would like to explore acting for fun, self-discovery, self-confidence, but not necessarily to be a professional actor. Students will work both on dramatic and comedic acting, as well as sharpening improvisational skills through many fun games that will be taught and played on stage! Students will learn acting technique and will be given a foundation for truthful artistic expression.

We are so excited to meet you!
