Come one, come all to Bill Shatner’s School of Overacting!

Forget subtle, nuanced performances. Those are boring and forgettable. Learn how to say your lines with gusto!

In this course you will learn such techniques as…

  • The double fist shake
  • The naughty kitten
  • The cultural appropriation
  • The self bitch slap
  • The enthusiastic mime stuck in a box
  • The nipple hardener
  • The sweaty declaration of self
  • The “this wall is amazing”

And many more!

Gymnosomata, commonly known as Sea Angels. An apt name- the sea angels are the ethereal, translucent, fluttering angels of the sea. 

In hard scientific terms, they’re small swimming sea slugs, but we’ll pass over that for now and just admire how delicately beautiful these wonderful creatures are.
