CURTAIN CALL
kids
Curtain Call Kids is a professional studio environment located in a private residence. With smaller class sizes and an intimate environment, students gain more one on one instruction. This enables them to truly reach their full potential. Arts education should be a holistic experience. To participate you must invest your mind, body, and heart. At Curtain Call Coaching we firmly believe that an education in the arts not only produces better performers but kinder, more thoughtful, and self assure human beings. Truly wonderful qualities grow in children when they are given the opportunity to study the arts.

Kellie teaches an actor how to genuinely feel emotion - and feel it with consistency. She equips actors with an easy-to-understand process of acting method that helps build a complete character. There have been many times that I thought I knew everything about my character, but in just one session, she helped me discover something that added a whole new and refreshing layer to my portrayal. Kellie gave me the tools to act, the tools to interpret material and make my own inspired choices from the text. She’s one of the best teachers out there (not to mention a joy to work with) and I strongly recommend her!!
