Interested in Acting?
Why not try our acting classes. Acting Classes are a great way to develop self-esteem, social skills, reading skills, comprehension skills, vocal skills, movement skills, creative skills, and the imagination.
Our acting classes can also open the door to a career in the performing arts. According to ACTRA, the Canadian professional actor's union in Canada, there are approximately 22,000 professional actors in tv, film and commercials in Canada. According to SAG-AFTRA, the American professional actor's union in the United States, there are approximately 120,000-130,000 such professional actors. These figures do not include professional actors exclusively doing theatre. Through Bottle tree Productions, learn the nuts and bolts of a career in the performing arts.

We have a large room for classes. Our teachers have a lot of experience and connections to various amateur
and professional theatre companies.
Our acting class program has been
developed over years of experience. We believe in developing the
fundamentals for technique and self-confidence.
We believe each child and adult has an incredible
amount of potential. Our goal is to unleash that potential that is inside everyone. But potential is not identically distributed, so we do not
believe in the cookie-cutter approach. We believe in suiting our teaching approach to the needs of the individual within the context of the class as a whole.
We use theatre games to develop the
imagination and the ability to be in the moment and to build
self-esteem. We do scenes to develop technique. Warning-This is not
the public education system. We do not have lessons and marks. Lessons and marks not an optimum way to learn how to succeed in any art form. While the public education system
considers success moving on to the next grade, we consider success the
development of the person. We know what works and what doesn't. We work with young and old to get them
ready for the stage. We are not concerned with the passing fads of
theatre learning. We are only concerned with making our students
ready for performing under the lights.
Several of our students, young and old, have recently appeared in productions of The Sound of Music, A Midsummer Night's Dream, Fiddler on the Roof, various Domino Theatre productions, Blue Canoe and many more. Some of our more successful students have worked professionally, in film, television and theatre.
We believe that theatre is a team
sport, that in order to succeed in theatre a student has to learn
that the team is important, that strength comes from numbers, that
wanting attention, or being concerned only about your own needs, does not
work in professional theatre, film or television. No one will work
with someone who rubs everyone else the wrong way. No one in show business wants to
work with a diva.
The performing arts is a collaborative art form. Everyone has to pull together in the same direction. There are so many people that contribute to the success of a show.
Directors, writers, choreographers, costumers, set designers, stage
management, sound and lighting people, marketing people and
performers are some of the people that contribute to the success of a show. Theatre is a community. We work hard to make sure that
our students are ready to become a valuable part of that community.
