In this eight week class, you’ll get out of your head, learn how to make strong, exciting choices and gain an unshakeable foundation and confidence in your acting as you dramatically expand your emotional range and learn how to listen and respond truthfully in the moment. Sanford Meisner defined acting as "The ability to live truthfully under imaginary circumstances" and this first class will breakdown the walls that keep us from bringing the single most important element to any performance: ourselves.

Tired of spending three to five hours in a scene study class and spending most of the time watching OTHERS work? For a limited time and for a limited number of actors, I will be offering a private scene study class.
HOW IT WORKS: Find a partner, find a scene. You will work for four weeks - one full hour per week on the scene, privately, with me.
This is open to ANY actor, whether they have studied with me or not, regardless of their technique. However, this is suggested for ADVANCED actors.
