Find your inner performer--Stagebridge winter classes start January 7

*/

Are you over 50 and looking for performing arts classes where you will never be criticized, only tactfully counseled? Well, you’ve come to the right place--Stagebridge in Oakland.

Love Cole Porter songs like “Just One of Those Things” and “Too Darn Hot”? Join Ellen Robinson and Benjamin Pither this winter in exploring the works of Porter, who was a major influence on Sondheim’s work.

Benjamin and Ellen aim for a more professional presentation in their Musical Theatre class than audiences expect from amateurs.

Ellen advises: "Whatever you're doing, do it all out."

Afraid to sing solo or wanting a less structured singing experience? Try Scrumbly Koldewyn’s singing class! This course is about letting your true feelings shine through on stage, make daring vocal choices and be present when performing.

New offerings this winter will be:

  • Beginning Acting with Michael French
  • Intermediate Acting with Charles Shaw Robinson
  • Beginning and Intermediate Improvisation with Barbara Scott
  • Advanced Acting with Ray Reinhardt
