The Acting Lab is a laid-back meet-up for amateur actors to perform, have fun, and help each other improve. Whether it’s a scene, a monologue, or some improv, everyone gets a chance to jump in and try things out. After each performance, the group shares honest, supportive feedback so we can all learn and grow together. It’s a great way to practice, connect, and build confidence in a relaxed, creative space.

The Acting Lab is a laid-back meet-up for amateur actors to perform, have fun, and help each other improve. Whether it’s a scene, a monologue, or some improv, everyone gets a chance to jump in and try things out. After each performance, the group shares honest, supportive feedback so we can all learn and grow together. It’s a great way to practice, connect, and build confidence in a relaxed, creative space.

July 22, 2025This course will illustrate the connection between trauma and its impact on regulation, relationship and academic, social, and behavioral struggles, all while working towards a better understanding of what influences behavior and what behavior is communicating. With better understanding comes a better response, one that supports healing, facilitates connection and builds resilience. This course will offer a working definition of trauma and will explore a simple antidote to the trauma response that is surprisingly at the fingertips of anyone at any time. This experience gives participants the opportunity to put on a trauma sensitive lens and explore the “trauma goggles,” to deepen understanding of the impact of trauma on the mind, body, and soul. A practical overview of basic brain function and impact of trauma on the brain’s organization, function, and structure, especially the stress response system. This course incorporates current research and perspectives from neuroscience, including the work of Dr. Bruce Perry, Dr.Besse van der Kolk, as well as numerous other sources.
