Joseph Laub Jr.
Joseph Peter Laub, Jr. is the Director and founder of The Actors’ Group. He has nurtured the small group from day one and worked extremely hard to make everything work. He is a director with very high standards for the quality of his show and makes sure every tiny detail is perfect before he’s satisfied.
His main goal with the program is to get new people, kids and adults, to learn more about Drama by participating in actual shows. By doing this, he believes that people will be able to move into society and meet other people. The Actors’ Group has always been a friendly bunch of people. Everyone is always very close because they are working together but at the same time having fun. The atmosphere is much different than in school, where everyone is supposed to be quiet and fun is something that pretty much happens outside. Joe Laub allows the cast of any show he’s doing to have fun as long as they get their work done.
