2020 Masterclass Series


These remarkable à-la-carte workshops were led by artist/educators from nationally prominent theatre companies. Each class explored a different theme to help students grapple with the often intense challenges actors face on stage and in the rehearsal hall. ​Teaching artists hailed from the Oregon Shakespeare Festival, Portland Center Stage, People’s Light Theatre Company, and other theatres around the country.
