Check us out at http://www.acersnyc.c... This is not a class. We're actors working together to provide each other with support on auditions and on goal setting. We provide a venue where you can take the techniques you learned in class and put them to use in preparation for an audition, whether it be for an agent, casting director, or manager. We provide suggestions after a performance, but they are merely suggestions, which you are free to accept or not. Ultimately, the choices you make for a p …

This Meetup is for people who are interested in getting together to read Shakespeare's plays out loud. Each person will take one (or more!) parts and we will act them out. At each meetup, we'll take one of his plays (chosen at the previous meetup and announced on the Meetup's website), assign parts and run with it. Be funny, be dramatic, have fun!

The purpose of this group is to get together a great group of talented, highly motivated actors who want to work on scenes and possibly creating new projects together simply for the love of acting. Why can't a group of people work on plays together outside of a classroom environment which can be costly and repetitive? Let's meet once a week to work on scenes, give each other the opportunity to engage in the art that we love and inspire one another.

Would you like to feel confident on the stage of your life like an actor feels on the stage of a theater no matter what role he plays? If you answered YES to any or a …

This group is being started to cull talent for modeling, acting, editing, sound, props, writing and everything in between.

All forms of talent are desired, but you must be as serious as we are, slackers and no-shows will be booted. We will never ask you to pay f …
