    Brooke Wallace

    Instructor

    Hello! I’m Brooke and I’m the founder of The Rabbit Hole Children’s Theater! I’ve been performing my whole life and received my training studying Musical Theater at The American Musical Dramatic Academy, in New York City. I’ve always been someone who lived inside my imagination and I was extremely lucky to find an outlet where using this part of yourself is celebrated. I have been working with children my whole life and I worry that many kids are being pushed out of their artistic freedom. My mission is to provide a safe place for little ones to explore their curiosity and be nurtured in their unique voice. My classes are centered around theatrical play and the joy of make believe. At The Rabbit Hole we worry less about perfection and spend time falling in love with the creative process. Theater is a wonderful outlet for imaginative play, self expression and the magic of wonder! It’s been a dream come true watching your little ones fall in love with The Rabbit Hole.
