Pursue Acting at Cavod!

Cavod Performing Arts offers classes in acting and musical theatre for students ages 8 & up where they get to learn the fundamentals of acting.

Theatre acting classes are a great way for students to improve their theatrical skills and develop confidence! They will meet new people and grow their social skills while learning acting technique, vocal projection, and more.

Our goal is to help students grow in their abilities, be challenged artistically, have fun learning with others, and walk in their God-given identity. All our instructors are professional local performers with both classroom and real-world experience. 

(Students in our acting classes will perform an in-class showcase for family and friends. If you are interested in auditioning for one of our full-length musicals with Cavod Theatre, follow us on social media to catch audition announcements!)

No prior experience is necessary for our classes. See our options below! Interested in joining the Cavod Theatre Production Team? Click here

My husband and I just got to see the amazing production of Anastasia this past weekend at the theatre in New Holland! I had been at the theatre for an open house some time back, but never really got involved or had seen a show…..until this past weekend!!! We will be back……whether it’s to see another show or for me to get involved somehow :)

Cavod does an amazing job with keeping Jesus at the center of everything that they do, and my family and I applaud that! Bravo Cavod for making community theatre available and accessible for Lancaster County and surrounding areas :)

CAVOD is a performing arts school & community theatre like no other! The opportunities available- all under one roof- are a gift and a blessing to all who come through their doors. Our five children have grown in the safe and encouraging environment CAVOD provides, grounded on Scripture and the truth and love of Jesus. CAVOD’s teachers and directors, mentor their students and help them grow in their God-given talents. Their theatre productions will leave you breathless. Telling stories worth telling, such as Anastasia, CAVOD brings timeless tales and truths to the stage, reminding us all that light and hope do triumph over the darkness.

We LOVE Cavod! 5 of our children are taking classes at Cavod. We are incredibly thankful that they are all on scholarship. The four girls are in the Friends in Motion classes. They enjoy participating with other children who have special needs. The teachers are caring and make the classes fun! Our children have also enjoyed several of the summer camps, ballet, acting class, musical theater, vocal ensemble and piano. The Christ centered culture at Cavod has the kids as well us as parents looking forward to Monday and Thursday evenings. Thank you Cavod!

My son has taken theatre classes for 2 years here and tap for one year. It is a wonderful, welcoming place. Everyone is very friendly. We also appreciate the Christian environment and knowing that our son is being taught to perform to the God's glory. I would highly recommend Cavod!

Having been to 5 musicals at CAVOD Theater, including a Junior show of 42 kids, I can confidently say the quality of acting and musical performance delivered at this community theater is superior to several professional shows I have seen.
Response from the owner:Thank you for your positive review! We appreciate you taking the time to share.
