Class Philosophy:
Less is more! People try to make this 'acting craft' a mystery, but it's not! It’s simple: make one honest choice at a time, and stay in the truth of that moment. Show your uniqueness from the inside and we will be astonished by what we see on the outside! Listen to the other actor with your ears, eyes, heart and soul. It's all about listening, then reacting with the truth!"
This class offers a unique blend of Film & TV instruction and Theatre method.
Together, both acting coaches, bring years of experience to share with young people entering the acting field.
