The 2 Year Acting Program is taught by Artistic Directors, Seth Barrish and Lee Brock, and by Designated Barrow Group Acting Teachers.

The First Year begins with an emphasis on script analysis and an introduction to the tools found in “An Actors Companion”, which help an actor to find more ease, spontaneity and clarity.  The class continues with scene study, acting for the camera, Shakespeare and monologues.  The First Year concludes with a Barrow Group community showcase.

In the Second Year students begin with advanced scene study, where the focus is on self-diagnosis, and then take classes in stage combat, clowning, voice and Alexander Technique.  The Second Year, building on what students learned from the showcase in the first year, culminates with an invited Industry Showcase.
