CoLAB On-Camera Acting for Teens & Tweens

Is your teen interested in performing on camera? CoLAB Method offers 12-week acting classes designed for middle and high school students at the Milwaukee Youth Arts Center. Classes run on Friday evenings and focus on real film and television techniques—not just memorizing lines. Students learn how to take direction, make authentic choices, and stay grounded while performing, skills that build genuine confidence both on set and in everyday situations like school presentations or job interviews. The instructors, Thomas and Daniella Adisi, founded CoLAB Method and bring professional experience directly to the classroom. Thomas has appeared in major television shows and national commercials, while Daniella is an accomplished actor, playwright, and director. They've been teaching on-camera acting since 2016. Classes are structured so middle and high schoolers begin together; if enrollment allows, high school students move to their own time slot. Registration is $325 per 12-week cycle, and you can sign up through their website.
