| INFORMATION ON OUR CLASSES: Discover and nurture the artist in you… At The Charleston Acting Studio, our approach is tailored to training the individual student, as opposed to delivering a general "system" to a group. Our commitment is to offer classes in a professional and positive atmosphere, where students can gain sound experience in the discipline and art of theatre. Our workshops offer a fun way to become more self-confident, creative, and spontaneous, while developing your acting potential. Acting and Creative Drama classes meet once a week for seven to eight weeks. The final class is a showcase performance of scenes and monologues that have been worked on throughout the course. Family and friends are cordially invited and encouraged to attend the showcases! |

The Charleston Acting Studio is pleased and proud to introduce our
new Acting Instructor, Teralyn Tanner, who joins the faculty of the
Charleston Acting Studio with a wealth of valuable experience,
teaching acting to children and adults all over the world.
Teralyn started out as a very shy child.. She discovered theatre in
college and never looked back. After graduating with a BA from
Lander University she joined Missoula Children’s Theatre and
traveled throughout the United States and Europe teaching full-scale
musicals to children age 5- 18 each week. In her four years with the
theatre, she discovered that theatre was an art accessible to all
because it encouraged the one thing innate in all of us—play! And
not only is acting fun, but it fosters confidence and a more articulate,
responsive and expressive identity, which are essential life tools.
This discovery led her to graduate school where she received an
MFA in Acting from the University of Montana. Since then, Teralyn
worked with the Montana Repertory Theatre, traveling to schools and
reservations bringing theatre and theatre education to students and
teachers. And last year, she worked in Daegu, South Korea
developing a program that used the tools of theatre to teach children
English in a fun, unconventional way.
Last fall Teralyn earned high accolades when she starred in the title
role of “Educating Rita” at Midtown/Sheri Grace Productions ‘Theatre
B” at the Charleston Acting Studio.
Teralyn is excited to find a home at Charleston Acting Studio, and
looks forward to teaching, learning, and growing with everyone
involved.
