To be the best Los Angeles acting school, an acting studio should offer acting classes that quickly and expertly train today’s actor- end of story. Hollywood acting classes are full of actors searching for the "real" Meisner Technique, or the "real" Michael Chekhov Technique, and so on. In the mean time, little or no current, practical training is offered - the creative and professional needs of today’s actor go largely unaddressed.

We offer an alternative to acting teacher worship; full time, 90 minutes on your feet, daily training. We adapt to the 21st century by offering only the PRACTICAL and USEFUL elements of The Meisner Technique and The Michael Chekhov Technique, as well as the practical application of all this to cold reading, scene study, audition technique, and on-camera work.

Our faculty is widely recognized as the best professional acting training faculty in Los Angeles, all currently working actors and directors holding MFA degrees from places like Harvard, Yale, and Rutgers. It is no accident that respected talent agencies like CAA and Endeavor consistently recommend The Acting Corps.

How does it work? The Actors’ Boot Camp® is four weeks of daily classes, by the end of which you will know if acting is your life’s work or just something you say to people at the local bar. Then, by invitation only, there is The Actors’ Boot Camp II – eight more weeks of exhilarating, hard work before you go out and begin to AUDITION. That’s right, we will hold your hand as you get out there - no more hiding in a classroom, now you’re an actor.

What’s next? Because now you’re out looking for acting work, you need to be ready for whatever comes your way. The Advanced Program will prepare you creatively for whatever Hollywood throws your way while the accompanying Acting Corps produced and directed Professional Showcase will introduce you to the industry. Afterwards, by invitation only, there is The Master Class, where Artistic Director Eugene Buica and the class create together film projects which are then produced by The Acting Corps.

Our final advice to you? Pleasing the teacher and staying in school may have worked in high school and it is what actors do when they are afraid to go for it; learning to serve your talent is what you do when you mean business.
