Acting Conservatory

MMT’s audition-only acting class is perfect for advanced-level acting students who want to practice their current performance skills while also learning new ones. Through solo work, partner work, and ensemble-building exercises and activities, students will hone their acting skills, learn essential theatrical techniques, and discover new ways of working together to creatively tell stories onstage.

In the first part of the class, students will focus on monologues and group scenes, while in the second part of the semester, they will bring new works to life, written by MMT’s Playwriting Conservatory students.

This class culminates in a live showcase for family and friends to see what their students have learned.

To submit a virtual audition please email conservatoryauditions@millmountain.org no later than Sunday – August 16th at 6:00 pm EST. Please email…

  • MONOLOGUE (Click here for a sample.)
  • Students must perform 1 monologue (60-90 seconds).
  • Students must submit a horizontal audition video (midline up) and slate their name, grade and piece.

Auditions are also being held in-person on Saturday, August 1st at 11:30 am. To schedule an audition, please sign up using the link HERE.

Conservatory students are expected to conduct themselves as representatives of Mill Mountain Theatre in their character and conduct both inside and outside of class. This includes, but is not limited to, kindness towards peers, respect towards instructors, and timely arrival to class. If any student cannot conduct themselves accordingly, they will be asked to leave for the remainder of the semester and re-audition the following semester.
