Short Form Improv and Theatre Games (Mondays)
Instructor:  James Turner

Mondays, 7pm - 9pm

Join us for a night of fun and laughter!  Improv is a great way to strengthen acting skills, become more resilient, improve your ability to stay in the moment and think fast on your feet.  This short form improv class focuses on theatre games and popular improv exercises.  Think "Whose Line is It Anyway?" in the form of a class!  

Short Form Improv for the Stage
Instructor:  Brett Bovio
Dates:  Wednesdays, 7pm - 9pm
Time:  7pm - 9pm 
​Cost:  $150 per session

This class is dedicated to helping students master short-form improv with the ultimate goal of one day performing live on stage. We’ll focus on essential improv skills like "Yes, And," projecting, cheating forward, teamwork, call backs, and making each other look awesome. Through a series of exercises, students will sharpen their ability to stay present, think fast on their feet, and collaborate seamlessly with others.​

Advanced Beginner/Intermediate Tap Dance
​Instructor:  Debi Coco

According to a 2019 New York Times article, "studies show that dance provides multiple cognitive and physical health benefits, suggesting it may be the kale of exercise." Whether you're brand new to tap, are a seasoned dancer or are looking to dust off some old shoes, instructor Debi Coco has decades of experience sharing the joy and anti-aging benefits of dance with her students. ​

At NSMT, we believe a modern day actor should have a toolbox filled with true and steadfast techniques and methods used on the stage. Our conservatory style program concentrates on providing students the necessary tools to become a triple threat and well-rounded actor/actress. Students will hone their skills in acting, singing and dancing, while engaging with their peers, building on the areas critical to their development such as: critical thinking, collaboration, public speaking, time management and social development. We also believe that theatre should be accessible to any student who chooses to participate and encourage them to begin their artistic journey, regardless of their level of experience.
