The Actor's Key offers acting classes and workshops with instructors in the entertainment industry for both young and adult actors. These workshops are a "key" for actors to get a leg up on the competition, and walk through the door to the next level of success! Think of the workshops as individual "tutoring sessions", where you work with someone who will help give you advice on improvement, and point you in the direction of bettering yourself as a professional actor.

The workshops are an excellent way for the seasoned veteran to further their career by getting in front of people with experience in what it takes to reach the next level, and learning from their expertise. Our workshops are intended to help actors learn, and fine tune the skills they have been learning in regular acting classes. Workshops ARE NOT auditions and ARE NOT a means of procuring employment.

The Actor's Key is unique because:

1. You are always working with a scene you choose ahead of time--you get to prepare and be spectacular in front of the instructor, so they can truly see what you are strongest at and help you figure out what you need to work on.

2. You read one on one with a reader--One of the best aspects of our workshops is that you are one on one, paired with a screened, skilled, professional actor who is your reader, and they're purely for YOUR benefit. Their goal is to make YOU look good, so that the instructor can accurately aid you with advice on becoming a stronger performer.

3. You get written feedback every time--invaluable for passing on to your representation so they can better guide you, and for your growth as an actor, so that you can improve your skill set in order to reach your professional goals.*

We highly recommend using these workshops synergistically with acting classes to gain a full, well-rounded education in the business of acting and the craft of performing.

Acting classes help you to learn how to be a good actor— casting director workshops aid you in honing those skills with the aid of professionals in the show business industry!
