IT WORKS! Students to Stage! We are here to help you reach your goals.
Performing is fun, and taking a performance class is no exception. Many of our students enroll for the sheer enjoyment,
but, there are also many real-life opportunities out there if you know where to look. Not only do we here at Monster Box
prefer to cast and work with actors that have trained with us, but, no matter where you go, nothing shows off the work
that we do in our Training Center better than your success. We are proud of our track record, and even more proud of our
past students, so many of which are working all over the country and have made this their career. So, if performing is
your goal, or your dream, or just something you want to try, you are in the right place. This is a great place to start.
Whatever you want to achieve, let us help you make it happen.

IT WORKS! Students to Stage!

Monster Box Training Center classes are professional in nature, but our main objective is to bring the Arts closer to the community and provide opportunities, not only for actors to enhance their skills, but also to enable anyone to enrich themselves through exploration.
