    I have been going to classes here for years and would highly recommend to anyone who wants to learn…read moreabout acting, for all levels. There are pro actors who go here and people just learning for the first time and everything in between. After a few years of classes, I have gotten 2 agents, booked many short films, a few features, and a commercial. Jessica is one of the greatest teachers I've ever had in any subject. They will also go out of their way for you if you need them, I highly recommend them.

    Jessica Houde is hands down the best acting teacher in Cleveland. Not only does she teach the…read moreMeisner technique in the same way that Sanford Meisner actually designed it (which is unfortunately rare these days), but she has also created a school where actors are safe to be vulnerable and truly practice their craft in a productive manner. Jessica is by no means a pushover, but she also doesn't adhere to the silly stereotype of the snarky dramatist. She wants all of her students to succeed in their goals, regardless of if that means building a career or investing in a hobby. The change in my acting during my time at Houde has been staggering, and I am booking work much more often than I was before (and I know this is true for many of my classmates as well). I would encourage anyone to stop in and try a free class as it's really the only way to get a real sense of what Jessica offers, and avail yourself of this incredible resource of the Cleveland acting community.

    I grew up, in a lot of ways, with the OLO. My family started taking me to Gilbert & Sullivan…read moreperformances every summer from a young age, and now I still try to see at least one show a year if I can. The talent assembled is remarkable when you consider this is a relatively small company performing in a tiny Midwestern college town. The art direction, costuming, and set design is always impressive, and the performances at Freedlander Theatre are welcoming and intimate rather than feeling cramped or overwhelming. If you can, I strongly encourage you to attend the pre-show lectures, held 1 hour before each performance, where they talk about the history of the production you're going to see, and provide samples of the music.

    The OLO started in 1979, and I started going when I was a wee little thing back in 1984. in 1987,…read moreI began donating 25.00 a year, which made me the youngest patron on record. I don't say thins to brag, only to explain that I've grown up in the theater and have seen performances of all genres across the country, and can say that the OLO is truly world class. That being said, I think the productions lost something when the troupe lost Dr. Stewart ( a great man with a great heart, who offered to take me on a tour of the bayous. He retired to Louisiana before his death). It was his vision that built the OLO, and no one, I repeat NO ONE I have ever seen has matched his speed, agility, and ability to sing G&S's pattersongs. Still, this is a truly great company, and anyone within 200 miles of Wooster should take it upon themselves to catch a show.
