    Acting Lab

    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.

    FREE Community Film Screening

    MOVIE NIGHT!!
    Free Community Film Screening:
    UNDIVIDE US
    An Evening of Hope, Dialogue, and Community Connection
    Wednesday, August 6, 2025 at 6:00 P.M.
    Aviator 10, Allen Theaters

    Presented by the Sacramento Mountains Foundation
    In a time when headlines tell us we're hopelessly divided, what if the real story of America is being written in living rooms, church basements, and community centers across our nation?
    Join your neighbors for a free screening of UNDIVIDE US, a groundbreaking documentary that reveals what happens when ordinary Americans sit down together to discuss the issues that matter most. This isn't another film about what divides us—it's about rediscovering what we share.

    What Makes This Film Different
    Through the intimate lens of real conversations in Pittsburgh, Phoenix, and Atlanta, UNDIVIDE US shows something remarkable: when given the chance, Americans from all walks of life—Republicans, Democrats, and Independents—can discuss even the most challenging topics with respect, humor, and genuine curiosity about each other's perspectives.

    Why This Matters Now
    UNDIVIDE US proves that while politicians and pundits profit from division, the vast majority of Americans—what the film calls "the exhausted majority" — are ready for something different. We're tired of the noise. We're ready to listen. We're ready to build.

    What You'll Experience
    This isn't a lecture or a political rally. It's an invitation to see your fellow Americans—and perhaps yourself—in a new light.

    The film celebrates:
    The courage of ordinary citizens who dare to have difficult conversations
    The power of local communities to solve problems without waiting for Washington
    The American tradition of coming together despite our differences
    The possibility of friendship across political divides

    As one participant discovered: "We may vote differently, but we both want safe neighborhoods for our kids. We both care about good jobs. We both love this country. That's a starting point."

    About the Sacramento Mountains Foundation: We believe in the power of community to address our challenges and celebrate our shared values. This screening is part of our ongoing commitment to bring neighbors together and strengthen the fabric of our shared community.

    BONUS: Every attendee will receive a free Allen Theaters $10 gift card to enjoy a future movie of their choice at Allen Theaters—our gift to thank you for investing in your community.

    "In our differences, the American experiment is still alive and well."
