about us

our mission

Ferrell Studios offers exceptional performing arts education and theatrical productions. We are dedicated to providing high-quality instruction to children, teens, and young adults who have a passion for the arts. We offer both virtual and in-person programs at our black box space in Metuchen, NJ. Our team of instructors are working artists with a dedication to helping students of all levels develop their skills and reach their full potential.

We offer a variety of classes and programs, including acting, musical theatre, playwriting, film and television acting, public speaking, and theory and criticism as well as private lessons for those who want to focus on a specific area of study.

Ferrell Studios is the resident theater company of the mignolo Arts Center and a member of the New Jersey Association of Community Theatres. Our company produces seasonal plays and musicals for the North Jersey Community. Some past productions include The Last Five Years, Songs for a New World, Miracle: A Holiday Cabaret. We also offer events, masterclasses, and other opportunities for local artists to engage with their craft.

At Ferrell Studios, we believe that the arts have the power to inspire, uplift, and transform. We strive to create a positive, supportive environment where students can feel confident and comfortable expressing themselves. Whether you or your child are just starting out or have been performing for years, we have something for everyone.

We hope you will join us and experience the magic of the stage with Ferrell Studios.

Land Acknowledgement

Ferrell Studios operates on the ancestral land of the Munsee Lenape and Lenapehoking People, who have stewarded this land throughout the generations. We recognize the historic Indigenous communities in New Jersey, Indigenous individuals and communities who live here now, and those who were forcibly removed from their homelands. In offering this land acknowledgement, while just a first step, we affirm Indigenous sovereignty, history and experiences.
