The Origin of the Actors’ Boot Camp®

Six years ago I invited a handful of students, that I was teaching one night a week, to a park (more like a patch of grass) in Burbank and told them it would be free to attend, but they would have to come every day. I explained to them about The Actors' Boot Camp and that our purpose was to see how far we would go as actors both creatively and professionally if we committed to showing up every day and working on our acting every day.

As it turns out, 6 years later, the Actors' Boot Camp has trained thousands of actors, and is responsible for guiding, nurturing, and supporting hundreds of professional careers, with 300 of our actors making it on imdb.com in just the past two years alone.

No, we are no longer in a park (we actually have some pretty fancy digs – three theaters, and so on) and yes, the Actors' Boot Camp has come to be imitated by many - but as Sanford Meisner put it when people would do impressions of him, "Imitation is the highest form of flattery."

Thank you for your continuing support.
