FOR ASPIRING ACTORS

STUDIO FOR YOUNG ACTORS

B Street Theatre is proud to serve Sacramento’s kids with the finest acting classes! We offer classes for all ages throughout the year. Young performers learn the fundamental tools needed to develop their physical, vocal, and emotional range in a way that is both fun and playful. Concepts are presented through a series of acting exercises, theatre games, improvisation, rehearsal process, and performance.

ADULT CONSERVATORY

The Conservatory’s mission is to provide aspiring actors of all ages with the skills, tools, and confidence to reveal their unique acting talents. The Conservatory provides a positive, creative atmosphere where you can learn the craft of acting, from basic technique to the practical aspects of building a career in the theatre.

Workshops & Residencies

B Street Theatre teaching artists conduct more than 400 workshops each year in the greater Sacramento area. B Street’s mission is to promote education and literacy, social interaction, and cultural enrichment by engaging children and adults in the highest quality theatre arts and playwriting. As a new works-focused theatre for adults, playwriting is at the heart of B Street’s defining company identity. Along those lines we offer the following opportunities to share our experience with you and your students!

School Assemblies

For more than 30 years the mission of the B Street School Tour has been to provide entertainment to children while instilling in them a love for the theatre and a specific appreciation for the art of playwriting. B Street Theatre performs 12 times per week, 38 weeks per year in schools, hospitals and public places reaching approximately 200,000 children annually. The performances are a great way to introduce children to live theatre by expressing the art of telling stories on stage.
