CO/LAB:core

Our core classes are open to all individuals who identify with having a developmental disability. We offer classes designed for actors ages 14+, and classes geared to actors ages 9-13. Our curriculum is structured to accommodate many types of learning and generally includes a dance party, warm-ups, theater games and exercises, and group work. We staff each class with two Teaching Artists and 4-6 Supporting Artists, creating a 2:1 participant-to-artist ratio. CO/LAB:core is offered no cost to actors and consists of: weekly classes, one-off workshops, and a summer camp program.
