Actionplay will offer a series of workshops for children, teen, and young adults with autism and disabilities interested in pursuing the goal of becoming a professional actor on camera and/or on the stage. This class will feature professional coaches along with autistic self advocates who will help our cohort of students prepare monologues, headshots, and audition tape. The final project is a presentation of monologues in front of a panel of Hollywood and Broadway casting agents.
Actionplay will offer a 6 week series of career resource workshops for aspiring Theatre professionals. The ideal participant should be a rising high-school senior (17 years) or older, planning to or are currently enrolled in college, and can commit to attending one, 2 -hour workshop per week (in addition to some possible extra time outside of class).
Made up of a group of young performers on the autism spectrum, and led by Music Therapist Gabriel Lit, the Actionplay Chorus performs their own original music in professional settings.
