Hello!
TEACHING ARTISTS
Ms. Amber (Amber Voeller)
Founder & Teaching Artist
Hello my name is Amber Voeller, I am an actress, singer, performer and owner of Playhouse Studio L.L.C. I trained at Huntington University School of Arts to receive my Bachelor of Arts in Theatre Performance. When I'm not on stage, I have been teaching young artists throughout the world in person and online. Though I've had a passion for performing since I could talk, I have a true passion for teaching theatre arts! I have taught overseas, American theatre companies, and after-school programs to hopefully keep spreading the positive benefits of participating in the performing arts.
