The Actors Gymnasium Opens Third Teaching Studio In Noyes Cultural Arts Center To Support Expanded Curriculum
By opening the additional space, Actors Gym will be better equipped to meet demand for in-person classes, which resume on February 1.
On Wednesday, Actors Gym announced the opening of a third studio in the Noyes Cultural Arts Center and a new, expanded class curriculum. The facility will be primarily dedicated to the nine month Professional Training Program's new Clown concentration, which welcomed its first cohort in September. It will also allow the Gym to expand its curriculum to include a broader range of ground skills, including dance and acting.
By opening the additional space, Actors Gym will be better equipped to meet demand for in-person classes, which resume on February 1. The socially distanced classes will be meeting at reduced capacity with a range of other health and safety measures in place.
The expansion of its teaching facilities comes alongside a downsizing of its office space - a measure that allows the Gym to avoid increasing its overhead expenses, even while increasing its classroom capacity by nearly 50%.
