“In The Act Studios - an actors' community where professional actors find success.”


“I moved to LA from Seattle in l995. I tried a couple of workshops that I thought were pretty dubious, when I stumbled, randomly, across ITA, and I can say, with utter candor, that ITA made a significant difference in my career and in my life. I spent two years taking workshops at ITA: I met scores of terrific people who had invaluable knowledge to impart; both 'guests' and fellow performers. I learned to hone a very special skill that I hadn't had cause to develop as a theatre actor ~ absolutely critical skills that you need to have if you're going to audition for FILM and TV. Take good notes.  Not a single CD or industry pro fails to impart vital info! By getting up in front of your peers and colleagues and learning how to identify playable actions, you'll give yourself a shot at a career in this town. ITA can make a big difference.”
