Join the Resistance: The Project Roadmap
Are you ready to join the cast? First Performers Academy is launching a unique, two-phase theatrical experience designed to take you from a raw recruit to a stage-ready survivor.
Led by FPA founders Robbie and Gem, this project is more than just a play—it’s a comprehensive training ground for young performers.
Phase 1: The Training Workshops (5 Weeks)
Before we face the undead, we must hone our skills. For the first five weeks, we will dive into intensive workshops covering:
Stage Combat: Learn to fight (safely) like your life depends on it.
Dance & Movement: For those thriller moments.
Acting & Vocal Technique: Project your voice over the screams.
Phase 2: The Rehearsal Period (12 Weeks)
Once training is complete, we move into full production mode. Over 12 weeks, we will block, rehearse, and polish 10 Ways to Survive a Zombie Apocalypse for the final performance.
Choose Your Weapon
We know every survivor has a different skillset. You have the flexibility to choose your path. Whether you want to be a "Triple Threat" involved in dance, combat, and acting, or strictly focus on the acting and character work, we will tailor your experience to your strengths.
