An Actor’s Evening, a panel series aimed at performers, is one of many benefits afforded to SAG-AFTRA Los Angeles Conservatory members. It takes place the first Tuesday of every month at 7 p.m. at SAG-AFTRA Plaza. The well-received panels feature leading industry professionals, and attendees are provided free parking and complimentary beverages. Moderated and produced by Los Angeles Conservatory Committee member Lee Garlington, An Actor’s Evening panels focus on a diverse lineup of industry-related subjects, from voiceover to casting director tips, and provide attendees with in-depth Q&A opportunities.
This year’s panels have included How Do I Get My Union To Help Me? on Feb. 6, featuring five union reps from each contract department, and On-Air Radio Talent Tells All! on March 6, with a panel of popular L.A. radio personalities. The latest panel, on April 6, Background Artists Break It Down for You, brought out working background actors and stand-ins, who shared tips and explained how to get work. The next An Actor’s Evening panel will feature working dancers and choreographers. If you are a conservatory member, do not miss it, and if you are not, go to sagaftra.org/laconservatory or call the Conservatory Office at (323) 856-7736 to learn more about enrollment.
