The Actors Center of Asheville (TACA) will be spending the month of June, 2025 at Lamplight AVL. TACA’s black box theatre & studio were lost in Hurricane Helene. As a result, they have been moving around since the flood and will be spending the month of June generating work, art, creative connection and as much artistic contributions to the community as possible. TACA not only lost their brick and mortar location in Helene, they also lost their scholarship fund for students struggling financially. All offerings will go towards rebuilding the scholarship fund, and opening the new TACA location, hopefully by Summer 2025. TACA has always been a place where artists come to train, create their own work, and book as a screen actor. They will be offering live performances, musical events, classes and workshops during their stay at Lamplight AVL. Kevin Patrick Murphy’s wife and business partner Kellin Watson is a local internationally successful singer/songwriter and musician and will be hosting songwriting workshops and live performances throughout the month as well. Live theatre, film screenings, & the opportunity for collaboration & performance for all will be open to the public.
