Detailed description is Training at Long Island's Oldest Professional Theater The focus at The Gateway School for the Performing Arts is on training that will builds technique. Whether choosing theater as a fun pastime or a career in the industry, our professional instructors and continuing students have a dedication to the craft that provides you a class experience that is inspiring, humbling, expansive, and therefore, memorable enough to last a lifetime, no matter what endeavor is eventually chosen.. . If your child is theatrical or creative, one session here will give him or her (and you!) a real taste of what goes into performing. If your child is leaning towards following a performing arts path, the sooner consistent training begins, the better. So many times, we hear, "I wish I had known abut this sooner," from high school juniors and seniors that we meet! The kids we send off to college are way ahead of their peers when they get there.. . Many students have stayed with their training and have landed parts in our summer Children’s Theater and young roles on the Main Stage. Others have had success in Broadway shows, National Tours and Regional productions. Students have landed jobs in the industry, on network television series, B'way shows, pre-B'way tours, feature films, and soaps. . The Gateway has had a long history of training young actors. In the 1950s and 60s, Robert Duvall, Gene Hackman, Josef Sommer and a host of today's prominent actors were studying their craft on the stage where now, Long Island youth are getting a foundation of professional training. Through the 1970s and the early 1980s, The Gateway had apprentice and actor in training programs in which performers like TV's Amy Brenneman, Wendy Malick and others would be spending a summer or two treading the boards in the summer stock mode. During those years, Robin Joy Allan, the current Acting School Division Founder, was a child growing up at the versatile business started by her grandparents and their three children, Robin’s mother Ruth, and her two siblings, David and Sally. In the 1980s, Robin and her Brother Paul, took the reigns of the business from their parents and began to run with it. Paul’s technical expertise and knowledge and Robin’s creative and artistic bent covered all the bases, and their experience and innate skills were relied upon to bring the theater into a new age. As Paul and their Stage Manager, John Hodge, began to expand the technical aspects of production, Robin left and spent close to six years in Los Angeles working in Casting. Her credits, WHEN HARRY MET SALLY, GHOST, PARENTHOOD, (TV and Film), THE OUTSIDERS (TV) and LORD OF THE FLIES, among many lesser known projects. After that time, she moved back to Long Island with her husband to begin a local youth training program. Robin auditioned and discovered many kids in LA when casting, and realized that professional training was sorely needed and could help local youth get a leg up in the “Industry.” The programs she began have given a start to many professional actors working today. The programs can even boast of students who are now working in casting and production. Even though The Gateway’s productions mostly lean toward musicals, the Acting School’s current incarnation, started in 1993, is focused on real skill training for all areas; theater, film and television. In the years to come, The Performing Arts Center of Suffolk County, that is now managing the business, hopes that the training programs can provide outreach into the community to help and foster talented young people in the arts; through scholarships, local school involvement and youth productions.
