Live Oak Conservatory Offers Students an Extra Monday Class on Acting

Beginning January 31, 2022, Live Oak Conservatory will offer students, ages eight to 18 an extra fun class in Acting. The class has been added at the request of parents and students to accommodate the late dismissal of so many Hernando County Schools.

Acting From Advanced to Beginner with Vince Vanni is now also held from 6:00 to 7:00pm on Mondays. Acting students on all levels will be challenged. This class will allow students to explore a wide range of creative ways to improve their acting skills. The class will involve scene study, characterization, line interpretation, developing accents, directing, leadership, public speaking skills, and much more. Through a variety of fun projects and exercises, those who wish to learn to direct, or even create scenes, will be able to earn the opportunity.

Vince Vanni is vice-president and co-founder of Live Oak Theatre. He has been teaching the performing arts in Hernando County for over 30 years. In fact, some of his students are children of his former students. In New York he was involved in creating, directing, and producing training programs and children's programs for a major publishing firm. Since settling in Florida in 1980, he has performed in several critically acclaimed productions, including Fiddler on the Roof at Stage West, The Show Palace, and Live Oak Theatre. He is the recipient of the very first Stage West HAMI for best actor… for his portrayal of “Tevye” in Fiddler. Vince now owns his own marketing agency and teaches acting and public speaking.
