"One of the biggest mistakes an actor can make is trying to ‘make it’ in the entertainment industry without proper training."
~ Coach Clay Banks
The art is essential, no doubt. However, there are more actors chasing auditions with the intention of ‘getting hired’ then actually presenting ‘quality work’. The A.C.T. course has been specifically engineered to be effective in laying down a strong and comprehensive foundation for you to learn the proper mechanics of industry-standard acting.
If you don't do it... you'll never know what would have happened if you had done it.
