Monday Eve Class Postponed


Hey All. Monday night scene study class has been postponed one week to November 5th, and there is still room.

Both this 6:30pm class and the 10:30am Monday Scene Study class are not full, so one time drop ins are possible (for 30 bucks). This means letting me know several days to a week in advance if you want me to find you a scene. 

Cheers.

Ted
