Taking classes at Truthful Acting has literally changed my life and I'm so grateful that God opened this door … More for me and led me in this direction and to take classes here! It was literally divine timing. From day one I knew it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. The growth that I have seen in myself has been so amazing and it's something I cannot even put it into words. This space has been something I truly needed. I'm so grateful for Marco, Robb, and Sam and everything they have done for us. The atmosphere they create is such a safe space and they are SUCH amazing instructors. Taking classes here have helped me grow so much, not only with acting but also getting me out of my comfort zone, and helping me mentally, emotionally, physically and just with my overall life. Not only do they care about your journey but you can tell they genuinely care about you so much as a person as well. I’m also SO grateful for the life long connections and friendships I’ve also made with my fellow classmates, who have now became like a second family. If you are deciding whether or not to take a class, DEFINITELY do it. I a million times over recommend and promise you it will be so rewarding and life changing. I could honestly go on for days about how amazing this school has been!! 🙂★★★★★ -

What Marco, Robb, and Samantha have created with this community of actors is truly special. Not only are these … More classes of remarkable quality for the craft of acting, but they are filled with empowering insights for life. I will carry this journey with me for the rest of my life. The teaching here is world-class and done in a safe environment for an artist to grow alongside others on a remarkable journey. I am only taking my beginner steps into acting, and I would not trade the experience they provide for anything. If you are in the Orlando area and have even a slight interest in acting, check them out! Thank you, Marco, Robb, Samantha, and everyone in my class and the Truthful Acting family!★★★★★ -

At Truthful Acting Studios, the instructors are kind, genuine, wise, and open-minded individuals whose goals are … More not to train everyone to act a certain way or a “right” way, but rather help everyone act in the way that is the most truthful and real to them. People have said that these classes are a transformative experience of self-discovery, and they’re right. I just finished Meisner I with Robb, and the class (and classroom environment) really helped with my self-confidence and my faith in my abilities as an actor, but it also helped me feel more in touch with myself and helped me make connections with my talented peers. It was a truly wonderful experience getting to meet and work with so many other creative individuals, and Robb is a very special and insightful teacher. I feel honored to have been able to be able to work with and learn from him; the lessons, discussions, and instruction from Robb are truly priceless. Whether you want to be an actor or not, I would 100% recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn something about themselves, feels disconnected from themselves or is going through a hard time, or who wants to explore their creativity and their heart. You will learn and experience things that will stick with you forever and change your outlook on life.★★★★★
If you’re unfamiliar with the Meisner technique, some of the lessons/classwork may seem strange or confusing, but every little tool you learn truly makes a difference and helps you to be able to tap into an authentic “performance” that feels more like an experience, as well as connect to your character, the scene, and your scene partners. It all adds up, and produces real results—although they will be different for everyone. They want you to act in your own way, and they guide you in how to do that effectively. Trust in the work, and let it be! I cannot wait to learn from Marco in Meisner II!🩵 -

This school changed my life and my world and made it such a better place to be. The people, the way they teach … More and approach everyone is indescribable. Marco, Rob and Sam are the magicians ! I have never been planning on getting into any acting industry and came just for the personal development but I gained so much more! The better approach to life, the real world of emotions, great new friends and a load of fantastic memories. And that is only the tip of the iceberg!! The deep connection, the dedication of teachers and their distinct personal touch in all the things is priceless! I came for a little while but definitely ready to stick for long! Going on my third semester. The variety of the courses presented is gonna take you through the most desirable techniques and the only regret I have is that there is 24 hours in a day and I can't take few courses at the same time!★★★★★
Truthful acting becomes a family! There is not enough stars to give a proper rating! -

Meisner 1 was more than just a class…it was a transformational experience. Robb and Marco are incredible teachers. … More They create such a safe, grounded, and inspiring space that makes it impossible not to grow. I learned so much…not just about acting, but about myself. My real, raw, authentic self.★★★★★
This class cracked me open in the best way. I laughed, I cried, I connected, and I felt so seen. The people I met in Meisner 1 have impacted me more than I can explain. Beautiful souls all around, and I feel lucky to have shared this journey with them.
If you’re even thinking about exploring acting or just want to discover who you are underneath all the noise…do this class. It’s honest. It’s vulnerable. It’s real. And it was absolutely unforgettable. -

Completing the Meisner program is an experience that will stay with me for the rest of my life. This conservatory … More isn’t like any other — it’s a transformative space where truth, vulnerability, and growth are at the heart of every class. I came in expecting to learn techniques on how to act like someone else, and ended up knowing how to truthfully live as the ‘character’ - fully present, emotionally meaningful; never pretending to be someone else. Rob and Marco create an environment that brings out your best, helping you break through personal barriers so you can act freely, truthfully, and artistically. I came out a completely different person, with a deeper understanding of myself, my craft, and human connection. 💖★★★★★ -

If you’ve come here looking for an honest unpaid review because, like me, you’re undecided on a school and looking … More online trying to find a place that is not a scam, not trying to max out classrooms for profit, and genuinely cares about your progression and success in acting, you’ve found the right school! I’ve taken two semesters here so far and start my 3rd in 2 weeks and I’m so grateful and happy to have found Marco and Robb at Truthful Acting Studios! Aside side from being wonderful and compassionate human beings, they’re also such talented teachers in the way that they help you hone your craft, answer questions in a digestible way that beginners can understand and don’t give a one size fits all advice when talking to you. They’ve helped me with my acting, my self confidence, my fear of public speaking (which has also helped me in my 9-5), had compassion for me during personal issues, and have relit a fire in me that I wasn’t sure I would still be able to cultivate as I got older in life. I could go on for another two pages but I don’t want to sound like I am selling anyone or work there lol, but just know that this school is the real deal! The community and family that you will build here is priceless! 🙏🏾 Hope this review helps someone to confidently take that next step and sending love to everyone trying to do the thing that makes them happy! Life is too short for anything else. Go for it! ❤️★★★★★ -

Truthful Acting changed my life. Looking back in hindsight on an impulsive last minute decision to enroll over … More 3 years ago now, I’ve realized how much of an impact the class had on me and who I have become. The classes don’t just improve your acting skills, they develop you into a better human being. Thank you so much Robb and Marco, and to all prospective students- don’t hesitate, go for it!★★★★★ -

Probably one of the best Acting schools in Orlando. I've been to multiple different acting schools and this … More one is definitely at the top as long as you trust the process. One of the only schools that takes you deeper into acting than you ever thought possible in their conservatory style classes. You will become a better actor if you come here and put in the work.★★★★★
