Coming back in the Spring of 2023!
*Pricing, Schedule and Scholarship information below*
Starting in October, a dynamic ensemble of Completely Ridiculous students will have the opportunity to engage in globally minded professional actor training, all from the comfort of home.
The CRC is the one and only acting program built entirely for Zoom.
And, over the last year and a half, working with close to 150 students from around the world, we’ve figured out some pretty amazing ways to use it!
Our faculty members are working professionals holding advanced degrees and certificates from the most prestigious conservatories in the world, and currently teach at some of the most competitive actor training programs in the country.
Also unique to this program, each faculty member has both extensive training in their individual discipline of actor training, as well as a strong foundation in the world of clown, games, play, and physical acting - having all trained with Master Clown and Commedia Teacher, Christopher Bayes either at the David Geffen School of Drama at Yale, or The Pandemonium Studio.
