The Matchbox Theater is a performance venue for The Matchbox Theater Company. The space offers theater, dance, comedy reviews and improv, performance art, acoustic music, and other forms of live entertainment. Our mission is to become a respected neighborhood theatre which serves quality productions including small cast contemporary works, one act plays, and highly entertaining original works by local playwrights. The theater is also a professional acting school, providing a fun and safe environment for youth and adults to explore acting through our various classes in stage, film, television, TV commercials, voice overs, and comedy improv. We also offer classes in hip-hop, jazz, and musical theatre. Student participants in our school will learn how to develop an acting technique, including the integration of movement, that provides the foundation for any serious actor. Our teaching philosophy embraces and integrates the best of American, British and Russian traditions of acting methodology particularly the techniques espoused by Constantine Stanislavsky, Lee Strasberg, Stella Adler, Uta Hagen, and Sanford Meisner. However, we acknowledge that acting is largely individual and the serious actor will eventually discover a technique that works best to suit their own needs. At the end of the day, acting must be believable, honest, and natural. Our training will assist the individual actor find his or her own pathway to success. Actors must train their instruments including the voice, the body, and the mind.
