Class Description:

The most powerful tool you have as an actor is YOU. In this workshop you’ll learn how to be “yourself" in every aspect of the business while also thriving within the confines of a typecasting industry. Landing an agent, getting auditions and booking work starts by embracing your type and knowing how the industry sees you. But, developing your unique niche is the secret to achieving your career dreams.
