Formerly known as 4th Wall Theatre Company, OpenSpot Theatre is a program specifically designed for everyone, from students with developmental disabilities to seniors looking for a fun, new adventure. Our Detroit chapter provides classes and workshops throughout Southeast Michigan, and we also partner with Michigan State University in East Lansing.

Whether you want a one day workshop or weekly classes, we bring the fun to you! You provide the space and we’ll provide the fun learning opportunities. We bring all our own props, sound equipment, and ideas. Let’s go on with the show, Detroit!

Our practices are always a good time! We involve singing, dancing, and acting into every session held. No matter the age, ability, or verbal skills, we like to get our students moving, exploring, and learning. Teaching them critical theatre knowledge like projecting, cheating, and stage directions, we value our curriculum as a professional grade theatre workshop. But under this learning, we sneak in life skills reinforced with each new theatre game: eye contact, memory improvement, taking turns, speaking clearly, etc. Theatre is an excellent medium to learn/review social skills with dignity. Plus, it’s fun!
