I'm looking for an intensive one to three week acting class. For several years I have taken the A.I.R.E. program in Washington State. This program is a resident, seven day, 8 am to 10 pm program that has classes in monologues, scene study, movement, Improv, voice and call back/cold readings.

There must be other similar programs somewhere else . . . .
