Home grown Atlanta playwright Lauren Gunderson is one of the most produced writers out there. Not to mention one of the most talented. A stellar cast of four very strong actresses, great direction and a beautiful set make this one production really shine.

We need to go to theatre and we need to support theatre more than ever.
The phone in your pocket is designed to replace every experience that used to require another human being in the room. And it’s working and we are more isolated, lonely and depressed than ever.
Theatre pushes against that.
It is one of the last places where strangers feel the same thing at the same time, no matter their party affiliation, race, age etc. We need that right now.

You’ve worked too hard on your craft to let your auditions be the thing holding you back!
You’ve trained. You’ve studied technique. You know how to build a character, break down a script, and do the work.
So why aren’t the auditions turning into callbacks?
𝐁𝐞𝐜𝐚𝐮𝐬𝐞 𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐨𝐧𝐢𝐧𝐠 𝐢𝐬 𝐢𝐭𝐬 𝐨𝐰𝐧 𝐜𝐫𝐚𝐟𝐭. And if you don’t train it specifically, you’re leaving opportunities on the table.
Every audition is a chance to change the trajectory of your career. Yet most actors spend years working on acting while spending almost no time learning how to audition.
That ends here.
Each week you’ll receive sides selected specifically for you—based on where you are now and where you’re headed. You’ll prepare the work, perform it on camera, and receive direct feedback from a casting director’s perspective. Then you’ll adjust and do it again.
We’ll tackle:
-Scene analysis
-Self-tape technique
-Creating the environment
-Making strong choices
-Handling nerves
..and the technical details that can quietly kill an otherwise great read.
The goal isn’t just to have a good class.
The goal is to build the skills, confidence, and consistency to approach every audition knowing you’re ready—and to stop losing roles because of avoidable mistakes.
Begins Tuesday, June 9th @ 7PM

Our newest audition coach!
Applications close tomorrow at noon for the only complete, Meisner-based program in Atlanta.
This program is for the serious-minded actor. You will:
• Strip away the surface and uncover the deeper actor—the one who makes bold, organic, imaginative choices.
• Build a set of tools and skills that will serve you for the rest of your career.
• Be pushed further than you’ve been pushed before—and come out with real confidence.
The training is rigorous. The expectations are high. And it includes extensive on-camera work.
Graduates leave with a repeatable technique that holds up on a self-tape at midnight, on a stage in front of 400 people, or in a callback room full of executives.
Our actors consistently book across major TV and film projects shooting in Atlanta. They’re working in L.A. and New York. They’ve appeared on Broadway and off-Broadway. The results speak for themselves.
Classes begin May 11.
Applications close May 1 at noon.
Interview and sample class required.
