Return to Theatre is a unique acting class for actors of all levels, developed at Compass Arts by Hampton Fluker, Artistic Director of Fable & Sow Theatre Farm. This class is designed for individuals who are new to acting or experienced actors looking to reconnect with the fundamentals of theater and storytelling.

Students in Return to Theatre will gain valuable experience following a curriculum modeled after the first-year programs at collegiate conservatories. The program covers essential acting disciplines, including voice and speech; movement, the Alexander Technique; scene study; and monologue work. Each class will focus on different approaches to acting, allowing students to engage deeply with the ideas of influential figures who have shaped global theater traditions. This will provide them with a solid foundation for continued studies if they choose to pursue acting further.

As part of Return to Theatre, students will be reading On Acting by Sanford Meisner and exploring scenes from a well-known American play. If the class decides, students can present their scenes to friends, family, and community members.

About Fable & Sow Theatre Farm: The desire to tell stories is where talent is born, and sharing these stories enriches everyone involved. At Fable & Sow, we understand that acting fundamentally revolves around connecting with others, and we believe everyone deserves to have their story told. We uphold the philosophy that self-judgment and the judgment of others have no place in a supportive and loving process, which is our primary focus. For more, visit FableandSow.com.
