Reaching outside the realm of schools, the Long Wharf Theatre
Studio addresses the myriad needs of the broadly diverse community
of Greater New Haven.

participation in class will be determined by the individual instructor.
In the past, we have received requests from students
for letters of recommendation or confirmation of participation.
We are more than happy to accommodate these requests; however,
we request that you provide your instruction with a self-addressed,
stamped envelope and a written description of the program or purpose
