Are there really no acting studios in Burnaby?
None on file: none of the 15 cards carry an address in Burnaby. Acting classes gather where the theatres and the production work are, so travelling to a bigger city for a weekly class is ordinary in this field. Check the local theatre as well, since companies often run classes without listing them as a business.
