PROVIDE

At Grindstone, we offer year-round programs on a term basis. We have 4 terms per year that follow the seasons.

Our programs include 8 weekly classes and a showcase after the final class for the public.

Students have the opportunity to continue their education in our 200 level programs, as well as our specialty programs.

The Grindstone Theatre School provides many different types of programming. We offer classes, workshops, intensives and camps for all ages!

Some of our specialty programs include our Improv and Musical Improv Conservatories and our Community Production!

LET US COME TO YOU!

Interested in bringing our classes or workshops to your community or organization? Grindstone Theatre School does outreach!

We would love to collaborate with you and bring some of the Grindstone to you.

One of our talented instructors will lead your team in a workshop or class tailored to your needs!

Theatre, improv, team building, public speaking, and presenting are just some of the workshops we offer.

Looking for a fun and new experience to offer your students this semester? We can bring full length Grindstone Theatre School classes to you in your space!

We can join you in-person for a customized workshop or class your team will never forget!
