Actors Circle Theatre
Actors Circle Theatre was established by Arthur Mendoza in 1985 in Los Angeles, California. The curriculum of acting classes at Actors Circle Theatre is based on the Stella Adler Technique. All students must begin with Technique I and Technique II, earning entrance into Beginning Scene Study, only after the technique classes are completed. Students eventually move on to Advanced Scene Study when their instructor feels they have earned it. There is also a Shakespeare/Movement class offered for students at all levels. Actors Circle Theatre has also established a program of repertory theatre, holding productions of published and original plays yearly. ACTtheREP premiered in Summer 2003. Plays originate in the Advanced Scene Study class, with roles awarded to those actors exemplifying outstanding talent and work ethic.
