The Studio, located at 41 Oakland Street in Springfield's Historic Forest Park area, offers
the region's only conservatory-style acting training program for young people.
Over 25 classes in acting technique are offered each year, ranging from introductory courses to such advanced courses as Comedy Improv, 21st Century Theatre, Scene Study,
Musical Theatre, and Stage Combat.
Over 2000 students have attended classes since the Studio opened in 1987.
Graduates of the Studio are active in film, theatre, and television
in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago and all over the world.
In addition to its acting classes, the Drama Studio offers a wide range of performance
opportunities for its students. All students can audition for roles in its three main stage
productions, two festivals of original work and three touring productions to Springfield
elementary schools.
In addition, the Studio provides many opportunities for students to
write plays, create new work, and develop skills in stage management and technical
theatre. The Studio's facilities include a 63 seat Black Box theatre as well as two
classrooms, workshops and offices.
The Studio provides a unique creative experience for adolescents in the greater Springfield area. Traditionally attracting some of the most creative young minds in the region, the Studio offers unusual opportunities for these college-bound students to stretch their wings in performance, playwriting, and production leadership.
