A 5-hour paranormal investigation at the Emery Estate in Weymouth, Massachusetts was coordinated and hosted by Monique Toosoon and led to chilling communications with 3 ghosts. They included one innocent boy, another attatched to a special furnishing, and a third who revealed his terrible nature.

Join Rob as he shares what one team as they encountered and learn about these three ghosts, why they stayed behind, and how the team confirmed their identities. The end of the investigation will surprise you and show the darker side of human nature in an earthbound ghost. 

Are you interested in acting or looking to strengthen your public speaking skills? Join NACE instructor and theatre actor Gregory Athans, in this 6-week workshop where you will have the opportunity to explore and express your creative talents. This course is designed for beginners who are interested in the craft of acting, but also beneficial to participants who have never attempted acting or done plays. The process will be informative, enriching and most importantly: fun.

Together we will embrace and cultivate the creative exploration of theatre where everyone can refine their talent and learn skills and techniques to reach their individual potential. Using the words of the playwright; along with instinct, motivation, emotion and other performance skills, participants will, through their own authenticity, develop a character and gain the confidence to be a great performer.

Each week, you’ll be paired with a partner and assigned a scene from a script. Beginning with cold readings and analysis, the scenes will be rehearsed and workshopped, culminating in a casual performance for your classmates at the following week’s class where the process will then begin again with a new partner and scene.

No prior experience is necessary-just a willingness to explore, take risks, and most importantly have FUN.

NACE is offering a special discount for high school students ages 15 - 17 who are interested in participating! Parents must sign a permission slip in order for students to participate in the class.
