Auditioning is competitive, and there are plenty of actors performing comfortably, leaving auditions and receiving the same feedback:

“It was good”.

But “good” auditions, means general choices.

Learn How to Stretch Your Comfort-zone to have an Exceptional Dynamic Performance, Instead of a General One!

Join the Casting Director known for not only working with huge production companies like Adam Sandler's "Happy Madison", but also discovering and launching the careers of amazing actors like Miley Cyrus and Emma Stone, Catherine Stroud!

Before the Class:

  • We will send scenes & class info Wednesday Or you can choose one of your favorite Scenes to do. ( if choosing your own scene please email us a copy )

  • ALWAYS CHECK YOUR SPAM!! EMAIL US IF YOU DO NOT RECEIVE SCENES AND CLASS INFO BY WEDNESDAY

Online Webinar : 

  • Catherine will start with the same Intro talk with students as she would regularly in class- parents are welcome and encouraged to join the session for this part of class!

  • Catherine will work with each participant live through the webinar each actor will receive notes & Redirects on their work (This way actors are still getting real time re-direction and notes, as well as the other students are still able to watch and see the notes given!) this lets all students be involved and learn by watching each other.

You Will Learn:

Catherine Stroud & Emma Stone!

Catherine gave Emma her first job on “The Suite Life” then cast her later in “The House Bunny”!

There are plenty of Hondas and Toyotas on the road, which are fine, but they’re general. Nobody notices. But when a bright red Lamborghini drives by thats when the heads turn. You need to be anything but general in the audition room. You need to be the Lamborghini.
