Theatre Gap Initiative
A yearly workshop to support Theatre Gap’s mission to prepare young actors seeking admission into BFA programs based in North Carolina.
We provide a 2 week curriculum bringing rigorous BFA level training focusing on scene study and foundational acting techniques. This workshop also has ensemble building at the core. Actors are given the opportunity to create their own work together while learning key lessons in being an ensemble and community member. Actors are given space to be empowered in their own identity and authentic self.

We facilitated a panel discussion with casting directors Raiyon Hunter and Danica Rodriguez to discuss casting, empowering authenticity, and community building. Followed by a monologue coaching session to give acting participants direct access to graduate-level coaching to support their audition preparation. Actors ended the workshop by attending a performance of The Scenarios with the Encompass team.
