The green room is where artists get ready. So is this.
Why Green Room Studios
Green Room Studios exists to nurture the next generation of performers through a safe and inclusive lens.
We believe theatre is a universal language, and that everyone deserves a community that is safe and welcoming to everybody. This is a place to express yourself through music and acting, leave the real world behind for a while, and be anything you want to be.
Our Creative Community
A Place to Belong
A community that is safe and welcoming to everybody, where you might meet your future best friend, or the people who stick by you when things get tough.
Room to Express Yourself
Through music and acting, students get to leave the real world behind for a while and be anything they want to be.
Learn It All
Singing, acting, dancing, auditioning: a place to learn everything you can about theatre, at your own pace, from day one.
How it started
In every theatre, the green room is where performers gather before they step into the light. It's where nerves settle and newcomers stand shoulder to shoulder with veterans. That's the spirit this studio is named for.
Green Room Studios was founded in Rochester by Rileigh Bautel with a simple conviction: great theatre and great training belong on the same stage. Every class, lesson, and workshop here is built as a classroom, a proving ground, and a launching pad.
"I want this to be a place where you can be anything you want. A place where you leave the real world behind, express yourself through music and acting, and maybe meet the friend who sticks by you when things get tough." — Rileigh Bautel, Founder & Director
