14+ Years of Productions
Acting Up was established in 2005. We have produced over 28 musicals since then, with casts of 80-120 young performers ages 6-18. Below are just a few highlights from those musicals.

Update on Fire at our Set/Build Facility
|
|
Acting Up's set/build shop and storage near Lebanon, Ohio was affected by a large fire at that location on Friday, June 14, 2019. The fire occurred in a building that is attached to our shop. We have severe smoke damage to everything in our 4500 square foot space.
We have used this space for 12 years, and therefore have 12 years worth of costumes, props, set pieces, stage pieces, and scenery in the facility. The amount of items that are unsalvageable is devastating. As a non-profit, we need help replacing these items, and covering the cost of fire restoration to those items that can be saved. How can you help?

This is an excellent book for both those new to acting as well as advanced actors. It is a relatively short read, full of succinct and simply set forth principles and activities.
