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. 💖★★★★★ -
