Says WCT Executive Director Alan Lutwin, “We are responding to a longtime request and, in our new home, we are finally able to fulfill it by drawing on the amazing wealth of talent we have in our Company. We are glad also to be able to provide top quality instruction in small, intimate classes at affordable fees.”    

The classes are:
Scene and Monologue Study with Bob Rogerson, an in-depth study of the craft of acting designed for the intermediate and advanced actor. Classes meet Mondays from 7:30 to 10:30 for eight weeks from October 2 through December 4 (no classes November 6 and 13). Tuition is $340/ $295 for WCT members.
