NEXT LEVEL TRAINING
Louisville, KY Location
ACTORS TRAINING PROGRAM
Instructor: Beth Craig Hall and other guest instructors
This training program is the ultimate work out in technique, genre, and application. Classes are for young actors who want to audition for plays, work on commercials, throw their hat in the ring for TV and film. Even if they choose not to pursue a performance career, the skills from this class help form self-confidence, the ability to think on your feet, as well as critical thinking skills, professional skills and manners, and the ability to assess a situation and “know your role.” Moreover, these classes will give them concrete documentation of their skills.

SATURDAY | 11:00am-12:00pm
ACTING - Youth
This class is for children who have an interest in performing arts. We play fun theatre games, learn about expressing emotions, build confidence, and begin basic memorization skills. This class is about critical thinking skills and communicating in an articulate confident manner.
​
SATURDAY | 12:00-1:00pm
ACTING - Teens
Classes at this age go more in-depth and are rigorous. Students will cover different topics each week from improv and scene study to auditions for local theater. The skills learned here go beyond acting. Just like the class for younger performers - analyzing, preparation, professionalism, confidence, and more.
WEDNESDAY | 7:00pm-8:00pm
ACTING - Adults
We prepare you for the job, not just the audition. In this class designed for the adult actor, you'll learn acting skills and audition techniques along with commercial acting, scene attacks, character analysis and our ACT Louisville special secret weapon — Frontloading.

SHOOTING STARS DRAMA - Ages 5-9
Instructor: Megan. Using play the students learn to explore within boundaries, create characters, improv, and also the expectations of children in a theatrical or on camera setting. We teach the nuts and bolts and then get a little nutty!
You have the basics down or you've been putting yourself out there and you need a new path or a kickstart. NEXT LEVEL is a great place to start.
NEXT LEVEL allowed Beth Hall and her team to develop a plan and strategy for your training. Combining classes, coaching, workshops, and intensives they can help you get to the NEXT LEVEL.
Beth has had incredible success getting actors to the NEXT LEVEL. Michael Evans Behling from the CW's All American and Lex Lumpkin from Nickelodeon's ALL THAT are just two of her success stories. We even take our potential stars to Los Angeles for a Showcase and to network with Beth's connections.
She has been working in large markets for over 10 years and has credible, reliable resources to help launch your career.
The personalized attention and strategic session have helped actors in the region get focused and approach the industry with a plan. ACT can provide the tools and then it is all up to you!

SCENE-A-WEEK
​
MONDAY | 7:00pm-8:00pm
For all skill levels
Instructor: Beth Hall
Commitment: Sign up in advance. Limited to 10 people.
​
This class really preps actors for the audition process no matter if it is stage or on camera. Once you sign up for a session (must be between- 48 and 24 hours BEFORE the session) you will receive sides within that window after registering.
You will prepare the role as you would for a live audition. You will come in, perform, and be taped. You will review the tape and receive feedback and then get a 2nd chance to audition again with notes. We'll review the before and after together.
This session is a great way to keep your skills sharp. It does not replace training and should not be your only choice for training. However, it is an excellent way to stay sharp in between jobs, to prep for an audition, or to get back in shape!
