Professional Acting Classes for Teens w/ Shaun McComb and Jonelle Gunderson
Thursdays 6:00-9:00pm
This ensemble class offers professional on-camera acting training for burgeoning performers who are serious about studying the technique of acting.
The curriculum will include both acting and movement exercises, as well as contemporary scene study geared towards producing professional, believable results.
Actors can expect to have an expert understanding of story structure and flow, and a heightened sense of body awareness and imaginative energy so that acting and character choices are as informed and as fun as possible. Most importantly, actors will leave with a process to apply to their self tape auditions and work on set.
Classes will be led by Shaun McComb and Jonelle Gunderson, both members of The Dirt Underneath’s faculty, with assistance by junior instructor Carmen Kruk.
Important Details:
- There will be a 15 minute break each week in the middle of class.
- Parents will be invited to a Showcase on the last day of class.
- Age range: 14-19 years old (student must be at minimum Grade 9)
- Parents and students will be required to sign the DTA’s Codes of Conduct Document before beginning participation in class.

Shaun is an incredible teacher, providing support, listening and challenging you to drop the bullshit. He has a great ability to crack what isn’t working for you in a scene and turn it into something simple, something playable (and fun!).
I can’t wait for Jonelle to do more classes with the Dirt – I really feel her practice will enhance anyone’s on-camera or other acting work.
