CLASSES & COACHING

Writing things about upcoming classes is always difficult for me. 

On the one hand, its necessary and obviously so but on the other hand, its feels boastful and weird.
“Hey, study with me and you get great information for your career AND this gorgeous set of all steel steak knives...”…

blech.

I don’t trust teachers who present themselves as the know all, end-all of what you need for your career.

I should just stop writing now and have a shot of tequila.

But I wont, so here goes:

 AUDITION THEORY

I’ll tell you what Actors have reported back to us after an Audition Theory Class:

It’s a life changer.

I know!

But in a very real way it is because we don’t get precious about Auditions, we break it down, take it apart, figure out how the Actor does their job in a way that is creative, spontaneous and authentically them!

This is a day time class. Students can leave with their pockets loaded to go to auditions and then they return. Not every Actor comes back beaming but every actor comes back excited. 

Not defeated.

Excited.

About the next audition!

And the next one after that!

NEXT!

I love this class because of the immediacy of the feedback. And for this teacher, there is nothing more exciting than watching an Actor who has been in the game, had success and now is back in the trenches trying to recapture their career, watching them remember who they are, watching them get woke. There’s just nothing better. Nothing.

 SCENE STUDY

I don’t give a shit if you do a great scene in my Scene Study class. What I do care about is whether or not you leave my class knowing yourself better as an Artist.

My Actors do brilliant scene work all the time but that’s not their goal. The goals I teach are being present, being a fantastic listener, trusting connection, and allowing a great story to be brought out of you. A GREAT story.


Bottom Line:


Don't study with me if you want to hear a teacher talk about her famous students. I would never be so careless.

Don't study with me if you want to be beaten senseless for not doing a scene correctly.

Don't study with me if you need hugs and kisses.

Study with me if I make sense to you.

Period.
