Car Talk Chronicles – Want to write?

Be the Playwright and maybe Act as well?!?

This a deep dive into our Movement Method, creating something awesome from nothing, and is an incredible experience no one can ever take away from you, with collaborative learning, on and off the stage lessons, and most of all, FUN!

Winter Acting Training Workshops – Gone Virtual!

ACTING TRAINING

At LATTE Theater, we continue to supply quality acting experiences no matter what the world throws at us! The safety and well-being of our students, faculty, staff, volunteers, guests, and the entire community are always our first priority. As the COVID-19 pandemic evolves, we continue to follow recommendations from the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the World Health Organization, and the Illinois Department of Health and Human Services

Please remember the 3W’s so we can perform and practice in person sooner!  Wear, Wait and Wash. https://covid19.ncdhhs.gov/materials-resources/know-your-ws-wear-wait-wash

We will still have fun with LATTE’s acting training program!  Our Winter/Spring programs include our Uncommon Grounds Master Class Series, runs from January – May on the second Saturdays of the month from 11 – 12.
