Serious Actors:  this is your workout!   

This dynamic on-going class is geared toward actors who have already been practicing their craft and want to continue to hone their skills and find deeper ways to explore.  Each week will have a different focus and will draw from several acting schools including Uta Hagen, Stella Adler, Sanford Meisner, Michael Shurtleff,  Harold Guskin, the Groundlings, Second City, Lesly Kahn, and more.  We’ll be working both on film and off, and explore script analysis, character development, freeing yourself from constraint, finding the core of the scene and more.  BONUS!  Each week I send out videos of your class work which are yours to keep or pass on to agents, managers, CD’s – anyone who is interested in seeing what you can bring to the table.

When:  Tuesdays     6:30-9pm

Who:     Adults     (and mature teens with special permission)

The studio is located in the Westbury Square Professional Building. I am on the second floor through the green French doors at the top of the west staircase.  Just past the Chimney Rock/West Belfort intersection on the north side.  I am directly across from the Chase Bank.

SO YOU WANNA GO TO L.A.? – December 1st

Now is the perfect time to get started on planning your trip or move to L.A.  Take advantage of this industry hiatus to get ready.  If you have ever toyed with the idea of going to Los Angeles for pilot season or for a permanent move, this is the workshop for you.  I have a lot to share about what you can do to prepare before you go and where to start when you get out there.  This workshop will save you time & money, and will give you a head start once you get there.  You’ll learn about branding, marketing yourself, laying groundwork, how L.A.’s market differs from regional markets and much more. I’m discounting this workshop to support actors during the strike.

TEEN FILM AND TELEVISION WORKSHOP!

Are you ready to take your auditions and performances to a whole new level?  This workshop will include playing with comedic and dramatic scripts from both film and television, as well as a bit of improv.  Scripts will be sent out ahead of time so you can prepare ahead of time if you choose.  Videos of your work will be sent after the conclusion of the workshop.  Although I coach teens one on one, I rarely do workshops so don’t miss out!  Class size will be limited so sign up today.
