Acting for Kids & Teens offers acting classes and workshops, voiceover lessons, audition assistance and private lessons to children and youth in the Portland, Oregon area, including Hillsboro, Tigard, Beaverton and Gresham.
Showcase is a culmination event, held in June, when AFK&T students present a scene or a prepared piece for industry professionals, casting, agents, filmmakers, producers and directors. Eight weeks prior to the event, students begin preparing their scenes and are paired with another student or ensemble.
In order to participate, students are required to be in Ongoing Classes with Coach Katie, Coach Eric or Coach Kurt and may not drop class two months prior to Showcase. They must also consent to be photographed/filmed for Showcase as many students use their Showcase piece for demo reels.
Showcase is one of the best ways our students are scouted for representation and TV & Film opportunities. Many students are now working with agents such as Q6 Model & Artist Management, Option Model & Media, Puddletown Talent, and Ryan Artists, as well as Directors and TV shows. AFK&T students have been booked on Netflix, Disney, Nickelodeon, Portlandia, Leverage, Grimm, The Librarians, Extraordinary Measures and Wild.
Because Showcase is for industry professionals only, we also offer a special Parent Night and dress rehearsal so parents can see their kids performance. Parents also have the opportunity to purchase a video of Showcase.
Register for Ongoing Classes and be a part of Showcase!
