Great Great Great place for kids to get formal acting, training and preparation to be in front of a camera. Katie O'Grady is a wonderful person and is a delight to be around. Her staff are wonderful and courteous. The classes are fun, creative and the kids love it.

Hands down the best acting studio in Portland for young people! Perfect for those who may be a bit shy but want to explore their creative side, as well as serious actors looking for guidance in career building. Katie O'Grady provides a safe, judgement free space where actors of all levels and backgrounds can come to dive into fun, challenging work. I couldn't be the actor I am today without this amazing studio!

I’ve been training here for 3 years and it has been one the best choices I’ve made. The community, coaching and the opportunities you get here are unbeatable. I highly recommend joining the acting for kids and teens family!

I can not say enough good things about Acting for Kids and Teens. Do you want your child to grow in the arts, learn from working actors, walk into a room full of strangers and feel confident, make true friends, serve others, work hard towards a dream, all while having fun? Then there is simply no better place in the Portland area to send your kids.
