About The Monday Night Acting Lab
The purpose of The Monday Night Acting Lab is to empower actors across all degrees of experience to unlock—and continually free—the actor within themselves.
Through group and solo exercises, projects, challenges, and games, the Monday Night Acting Lab offers a safe space to train and play. Participate in The Monday Night Acting Lab to:
- Start. Or cleanse your palate and start afresh.
- Get up on your feet and out of your head.
- Explore exercises, games, and challenges to help you continue building the bridges between your imagination, empathy, body, and voice.
- Explore exercises, games, and challenges to help you connect to scene partners with courage, trust, authenticity and spontaneity.
- Discover, name, and receive support navigating obstacles or habits that stifle your results as a performer.
- Conduct monologue preparation with coaching and support.
- Approach partner work and scene study through the lens of specific goals.
- Experiment, play, and work through frustration or feelings of failure with support and coaching.
You are welcome here. Come to discover, tiptoe or leap into work that actually matters to you. There is space for you here.

Covid-19 Protocol Information
The safety of the group is my first concern. The Washington state department of health communicates that masks should be worn during indoor gatherings. For the safety of the group, please bring your proof of vaccination and bring a mask. Hand sanitizer will be available on the premises. Please contact me with any questions.
