Why The Acting Corps?
Question: It’s 2010 in Hollywood and probably everywhere else, and Los Angeles acting classes or acting schools abound – how do you choose among them? Do you go for the school with the most movie stars in their storied past? Or do you go for the Hollywood acting school that promises, for a small sum, to introduce you to casting directors, agents, and maybe a studio head or two?
So how do you choose?
Here’s the deal. Before making a decision, know what you’re after - instant celebrity or a new life as a creative artist? If you choose the latter (good choice), what sort of time do you want to invest in your new life, and how much effort? If you’re only looking for an acting class one night a week or a place to hang out for two to four years while you tell your friends and parents that you’re devoting yourself to your craft (the lengthier version of procrastination) - The Acting Corps is not for you.
If you’re looking for daily, intensive acting training in order to first and foremost forge a new identity as an actor in the most creatively efficient way possible, then we may be for you. If you want to get down and dirty and have serious fun as you finally let out without fear all that you know you are but have not been able to express, again, we may have something to talk about and definitely something to work on.
Who are we?
We are the first and only true short-term acting conservatory in America. The Acting Corps is a 21st century Los Angeles acting school that has taught to this day about three thousand actors, with twelve hundred of our graduates booking professional film and television work (click here for their documented IMDB credits).
