Meet The Dream Team
Meet The Dream Team Behind The Bright Stars Greenroom.
This isn’t just a staff bio page. This is where the magic begins.
Meet the dream team behind The Bright Stars Greenroom. Real artists. Real heart. No ego. Just the team you didn’t know you needed!
A powerful, heart-led group of artists, mentors, and wellness professionals who bring more than talent to your retreat. They bring soul!
Whether you’re attending a creative retreat for artists or an acting retreat for performers, you’ll be guided by people who truly understand the ups and downs of the creative path and who create the kind of support they once needed themselves.
Our Core Retreat Hosts
At the core of it all is Shannon Scott and Toni Deckers. Two performers, creators, and real-life friends who dreamed of building something more than just another class or weekend escape.
They envisioned a sanctuary for artists. A place where you can breathe deeper, laugh louder, cry if you need to, and create with wild, fearless freedom.
Whether you’re here to reignite your acting, reconnect with your creative self, or maybe even become a mermaid (yes, really), this is your invitation to meet the people who will walk beside you. No ego, no judgment, just support and space to grow.
Shannon Scott
Founder • Performer • Creative Mentor
"I wanted to build a space where artists can be fully themselves. 100% messy, magical, and everything in between."
As the heart behind Bright Stars Greenroom, Shannon is a working actor and passionate advocate for soulful storytelling. She founded these retreats to offer a space where creatives don’t just learn. They heal, connect, and reignite their purpose. Her vision is a world where artists feel seen, safe, and inspired to grow both in craft and spirit.
Toni Deckers
Sound Therapist • Performer • Retreat Co-Host
"When you tap into your true voice (inner and outer), everything begins to shift."
Toni is a gifted sound therapist and performer who brings a grounding presence and deep emotional wisdom to each retreat. Whether she's guiding a sound healing session or helping you reconnect with your authentic self, Toni’s gift is making space for your voice, presence, and purpose to come alive.
Wellness Retreats For Creatives
You give so much to your art and now it’s time to give something back to yourself.
Our one-of-a-kind wellness retreats for creatives are designed to help you reset, recharge, and reconnect with the part of you that creates for joy, not survival. Through mindfulness, movement, sound therapy, and meaningful connection, you’ll find a rhythm that feels nourishing – not depleting.
This is more than a break. It’s a return to yourself.
Guest Coaches & Collaborators
Because each retreat is unique, we bring in a rotating group of guest coaches, artists, and mentors.
From movement specialists and acting teachers to creativity coaches and casting professionals. Every guest is handpicked for their heart, talent, and dedication to supporting your growth.
“It’s not about who’s famous, it’s about who’s real.”
Whoever joins us, you can trust they’re part of the Bright Stars ethos:
Gentle guidance, creative risk-taking, soulful community.

A Safe Space for Performers
No judgment. No pressure. Just permission to be fully, unapologetically you!
At The Bright Stars Greenroom, we believe creative growth thrives in safety. That’s why we’ve built a safe space for artists and performers where risk-taking is encouraged, mistakes are part of the magic, and community is everything.
Whether you’re laughing in improv, crying through breakthrough work, or floating in a mermaid tail, you’ll be supported every step of the way at any retreat you attend, and you’ll leave recharged and ready to tackle your dreams with full confidence.
An Acting Retreat for Performers Who Crave More
You’re not just looking for another class, you’re looking for meaning.
Our acting retreat for performers goes beyond technique. Here, you’ll explore character and story in a way that reconnects you with yourself. You’ll work with industry pros and heart-first coaches who guide with honesty and compassion, not ego.
Expect personal breakthroughs, not just performance notes. Expect to leave changed.
Why We’re Different
This isn’t just another acting class or weekend getaway.
It’s a creative sanctuary where you can:
- Be brave enough to fail
- Make messy art with no pressure
- Share space with other dreamers
- Reconnect with what brought you here in the first place
- And yes, you can even become a mermaid if your soul needs it!
Because here, the extraordinary is encouraged, and your imagination leads the way.
