About this Event
Community Salons are in-person, intimate performance opportunities to present work-in-progress performances, perhaps expanding on the same idea over multiple shows.
What should I perform?
You’re welcome to perform anything under 7 minutes. Even if it’s just a spark of an idea, we encourage you to get up to test it out! Tell a story, sing a song, share a monologue, play an instrument, or do a dance. Who knows, maybe your spark of an idea will grow into a great big bonfire.
Types of performances in the past include: Musicians, singer/songwriters, stand-up, storytelling, musical comedy, short plays, dances, and more!
Who can attend?
Anyone is welcome to sign up to attend or perform. We’re hosting these events for members of the Green Shirt Studio and The Voice Lab communities but you don’t need to be a current or former student to attend or perform. All are welcome! Stick around after the show to mix and mingle with your fellow artists.
Advanced registration is required for anyone in attendance.
Event Hosts
This series is presented in partnership with our friends at The Voice Lab. TVL co-founder Alexandra Plattos Sulack co-hosts this event with Jack Schultz, Artistic Director of Green Shirt Studio.
Donations from this event support the Green Shirt Studio Scholarship Program.
The Green Shirt Studio Scholarship Program helps financially support students seeking training in Levels 1 - 5 of our Meisner Acting Program - one of Chicago’s premiere acting training programs. Donations of any amount are greatly appreciated and will allow us to assist as many students as possible.
Green Shirt Scholarships launched in April 2020 to help our community continue studying with us under the economic pressure of COVID-19. As of October 2022 the generous donations from our community have helped over 45 students continue to pursue performing arts training.
