Act and Sip Class

Perform live on an Off-Broadway NYC stage with no acting experience needed!



1.5 hours Location Midtown West Class size 20 to 50 guests   $50

Your stage debut is closer than you think -- and yes, it comes with drinks! Act & Sip NYC is the New York City acting class that turns total beginners into scene-stealing performers for one unforgettable night at an Off-Broadway theater. Whether you're planning bachelorette party ideas, hunting for unique team building activities, or simply curious about how to act and finally ready to find out, this is your sign to stop watching and start doing.
Here's how the night unfolds: you arrive, grab a drink from the open bar, and settle in as your expert instructor walks everyone through introductions and icebreakers that make the whole room feel like old friends. From there, you'll be paired with a partner and handed pages from an iconic NYC sitcom or movie scene -- no memorization required, no improv class pressure, just you, your scene partner, and a little liquid courage. Your instructor offers tips throughout to help you shake off any nerves and genuinely enjoy the process.
When it's showtime, you'll perform your scene for the group, receive warm and constructive feedback from your instructor and peers, then get back up and do it again with fresh confidence. As past participant Lauren K. put it, the instructor "makes it fun yet educational" -- and every class wraps with a group photo to commemorate your big debut!

Act & Sip is New York City's most joyfully unexpected night out — a 90-minute crash course in acting, set right on the stage of an Off-Broadway theater in the heart of Midtown. Think of it as the loveable cousin of Paint & Sip, but instead of a canvas, participants get a scene from an iconic show or film — think Friends, The Office, Silver Linings Playbook, or Sex and the City — and a partner to perform it with. Expert instructors guide everyone through the process, offering encouragement and tips to help even the most stage-shy soul find their inner star. No acting experience? Absolutely no problem.
Whether it's a bachelorette party, a team outing, a date night, or just a fun Friday with friends, Act & Sip creates the kind of evening people talk about long after the curtain closes. It's BYOB (with a full bar available on-site), warm, welcoming, and designed for everyone — because the only thing better than watching great performances is being part of one yourself!
