    Anonymous review on 7/1/2017
    It was a great class and I learned a lot. The teacher was very knowledgeable and shared many helpful and valuable tips for beginners. Also, the atmosphere of class was absolutely non-judgmental and focused on learning and progress. I would recommend this class to anyone - but be prepared to have some time available during the week to work a bit on rehearsal and read a few plays. What I regret is that some other participants were less involved and didn't show up several times.
