The First Day of Portland Actors Conservatory's Professional Training

And we're off! Drink it in, everyone: here's what the Class of 2012 - and PAC's 26th year of professional actor training - looks like:

Our esteemed faculty joked plenty, but the students were facing a whole new world.

 

Just like on "So You Think You Can Dance," they faced the future that would soon be theirs.

These are the pictures they'll look back and say, Remember that first say! Oh my gosh we've changed so much!

Connor Kerns (below) named himself Senior Faculty, after Beth (been here 16 years, or some such)!

Jane Bement Geesman and Sarah Lucht - an indomitable duo, just you wait - will give our First Year students their very first acting class at the Conservatory. Woo!

Welcome one and all!
