One Way Productions

One Way Productions is driven by a passion for the Lord Jesus Christ. Our mission is to produce theatrical works of the highest standards. We place a priority on training and educating while making the arts an affordable venue for our community. We strive for excellence and encourage integrity, creativity and personal growth.

One Way Productions first opened its doors in 1993 as a theatre school for children under the direction of Ingrid Laurentiis-Wilson. It produced original and published pieces in Burbank, CA.
What we do

Productions & Education

live stage productions

One Way Productions is committed to bringing to our audiences original live stage productions. Our works typically draw upon the Bible or classic literature for the stories that reflect the Christian values we hold so dear. Our scripts are tailored to provide every actor an opportunity to showcase his or her talent, memorize lines and act under pressure.

workshops

Every year, One Way Productions holds week-long-summer workshops which are part of its ongoing commitment to training our youth. Overcoming stage fright, being able to speak in a public forum, and learning how to adjust when things do not go as planned, are skills of the utmost importance in any field of endeavor. Learn More About Workshops

classes

One Way Productions is committed to training our youth. Therefore, classes using the Stanislavski method of acting are taught on a regular basis. While these classes do not guarantee a student a role in a main stage production, this is where the director and writer spot talent for each show. Learn More About Classes

events

Occasionally, One Way Productions will host an event to expand its ministry and raise funds for a special project.

Drama Camps & Workshops

Where students develop self-confidence and language skills while having fun participating in a theatre class.  This experience will improve students verbal and non-verbal expression, their ability to express and utilize feelings and emotions, and their understanding of playing roles and how the roles are interrelated.  Creative Dramatics activities provide a framework for greater competence in listening, speaking, reading, writing, and creative and critical thinking.
