We’re excited to announce a new partnership with the City of Raleigh that brings our youth acting classes out into the community! It’s the same RLT education you know and love, now offered at different times and in different locations. We hope this will be a beneficial offering in addition to our regular on-site classes.
Registration for off-site classes is through the City of Raleigh’s RecLink site (search “Acting” to see all RLT class results). Click on the links below to head directly to registration pages!
