The Academy is the school of our dreams. Every day, inspiring teachers offer two performative lessons on a variety of subjects: comedy, performing femininity, feminist film analysis, how to speak up for yourself, and much more. The snacks are great, beers are waiting in the smokers’ corner, and the toilets are always clean.
